Looks good! As far as the later model (73-87) stepside beds, the box is almost the same and can be slightly modified to use with 67-72 fenders and steps. Just have to fill the old fender holes, drill new ones and ass a little to the sides where the steps mounts (older steps mount lower down than newer ones). I have a bed I got from Palf70step that has been modified. I'll get some pics if you want. Palf had some on here a while ago.
