71 bed qeustion
i have a 71 chevy c-10 about 40% restored,the only thing keeping me from starting on bodywork/paint is the bed(stepside),the one that came off only had one good fender and side panel,i cant find a decent bed anywhere and all new replacement parts are a little out of my price range and i was wondering if a 73-87 stepside would fit and what all it would take to make it fit,has anyone expiremented with this?

True ,Have you checked LMC they sell body panels seperately?
on small cars yes. but fat fender cars are pretty much the same in size and weight as the donor car. i found s10 brakes work great on fat fender and pickups. a deuce will just need manual brakes...
Time for brakes
