Re: Something to tinker with...
Picked-up a pretty decent and rust-free short bed yesterday:

Also got a replacement fender, under the primer, it is the same factory color as the truck, but that will be changed later as well...

Re: Something to tinker with...
Looks like a great project. I even like it as a lwb, but then I'm biased when it comes to that.

Re: Something to tinker with...
Thanks, I think it will be fun. The only solid plan at the moment is the short bed conversion. Not sure what I want the end style of it to be, but have my work cut out on it for the time being, so plenty of time to check out different options for later.
To be honest, with this body style of trucks, I do prefere the LWB on the 4x4 trucks, but the LWB just looks "nose heavy" to me on the 2WD's. And where a LWB 4x4 looks perfectly proportioned, a SWB 4x4 looks top heavy. Still on the fence with this generation's step-sides though, don't love'em...but don't hate'em either!

Re: Something to tinker with...
I've often wondered how a square body stepside box would look on the GMT400 trucks. Or maybe a 67-72 wood bed stepper.
