I know if you ask me (or some of the other board members) I'll suggest keeping the long bed. Everyone has a short bed pick up. It's rare to find a long bed in decent shape. (especially with a souped up 454 under the hood )
The problem is, the bed is in really so-so shape. It needs a LOT of work, not to mention the tailgate needs replacing. I have not decided on anything yet, I am in gathering mode for now.
