WC51/52 beds out there?

Post by PareosWC »

Gents- I'm at the crossroads whether I could rebuild my 3/4T bed, or consider what may already be out there. My composite bed will require a full wood kit with strips/fasteners, holes welded in, panel beating in the rear corners (what gauge steel is that :shock: ), front panel is bowed, and the passenger side tool box was torched off.

I'm not scared of the rebuild, but if I could save the $$$ by finding a relatively dent free bed, I would consider that.

Anyone have a lead?
