Re: 1967 shorty or long bed ?

To Jocko : Interesting Canuck. Nice to finally know the ground truth. So, when you say the builder does great work - is it a replacement actual/original shortbed bed that was patina'ed to match the rest of the truck and bolted to a 71 swb frame or is that the original long bed that has been masterfully cut down, and then the patina re-mastered to cover the welds? Yes, I agree, whatever the case, incredible work.

Yes it is a true short box. The box and frame came from a 67 GMC so the builder told me. Not a 71 SWB frame I stand corrected. The box had been hit on one side so a new side was welded in.
