Show off your short stepsides! Pics please...

Right now I am looking at buying a stepper. I'm a little apprehensive cuz I'm really a fleetside guy, but I could change with some coaxing(and then I'd have both). I know theres a bunch out there that are very well done, and I've seen a few. Show me what I'm missin out on.

Re: Show off your short stepsides! Pics please...

None of these are mine, but ones that others have posted. They are what inspired me to go with a short stepper.

There is a thread on here somewhere that shows short steppers, but I don't have it at the moment.

Re: Show off your short stepsides! Pics please...

I think I might be building 454Stepside's little brother .. (in my build thread below)

I know a lot more people build the fleetsides but just something about a stepper with the tailgate chains, wood bed, etc. just feels more like a vintage truck to me. Just my personal opinion. I'm about 65/35 % stepside guy. I like them all really. Nothing wrong with a fleetside, I just love the steppers.

Re: Show off your short stepsides! Pics please...

After looking at this thread, you guys are making me want to kick my own butt
for getting rid of my step bed.

Lots of nice steppers, keep it up.
