72Mario, check back a couple of days ago as there were some posts on the quality of aftermarket bedsides. Hope this will help you decide.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.

If you buy the new: bedsides, headpanel, cross pieces, rear panel, TG, wood, rear tubs, stainless strips & bolts---you can build a 'NEW" bed for about $3,000. Gives an all new prospective to the high prices for the good used beds.
