'68 with 88-98 stepside bed pics for those interested - not mine...
I know there are some members wanting to see some trucks with these beds occasionally so I thought I'd post these.

Don't look right to me either. But to each their own.
The guy says the bed fits perfectly, but is it just me or does it look like maybe the cab needs at least the rear cushion supports replaced. It looks to me the rear of the cab and the front of the bed are kind of down, don't line up good. Oh well, nice paint. But this looks like an accident waiting to happen

If they would just change the wheel arches to be the same! Magenta? Sick! All gray would be nice!

Yep, its the wheel openings that just don't match. They should be the same to look right. IMHO

Don't you see the fuel line hanging from the bottom of what appears to be the fuel tank?
Also the track bar looks like it may be rubbing on the exhaust. |

Never liked it, never will.
Trying to talk a neighbor guy out of doing this. He has a '71 Cheyene...Orcher and white, stock 402, this rig is loaded. I'm trying real hard, he never noticed the wheel openings till i said something. ------------------ '69 G.M.C. 350/350. Trying to clean up the left over damage from the Dope-Smokin-Old-Man I've been dubbed the Longhorn Freak/Fanatic/Expert, I just hope I can live up to it. FINALLY got the HORNIAC...a '70 one ton Longhorn with a Pontiac 350/350 and lots of 'personality'. Check out The Longhorn Webite. E-mail longhornmail@yahoo.com My name is Andy...not Randy...I'm in Ohio...Not Illinois...close enough? Columbus Ohio |
