He said he should be moving here sometime in August, which is when I'll be having a little North Florida/South Georgia Meet N' Greet.

No, I plan on cutting out the drivers side pillar. I'm not sure how much of these I will use, but this burb was a perfect candidate to go under the knife, .

Re: 67 SWB Crewcab....Building the Beast, aka Donkey!

Edit: Are the arches even the same as a truck bed?

They look to be dent damaged anyway?

Re: 67 SWB Crewcab....Building the Beast, aka Donkey!

Rob, unless I'm missing something, that's a link to a thread full of gauge clusters

My wheel arches on my fleet bed need some work. They're only bad in spots so if I could combine the good areas with what's on that burb I might have enough to fix it all. I would need both sides (on the burb the PS actually looks pretty good, but I can't tell if the DS is a little banged up or not?). I also have to cut out and fill in the side markers on the 68 bed I have, so it would be great to have metal "next to" where the side markers go so the contour is exactly the same

I might also need the inside wheel thingys but I just can't imagine them being the same as a fleet bed (but you never know.) They actually do look kinda the same... at least in my mind...

I won't have time to go up to look at my bed until early may (it's at a friends house over an hour away), but I wanted to say somethin' in case you are scrapping it soon.

Heck, while we're at it, my low hump floor is shot too (it has about 4 different shifter holes in it)....

Re: 67 SWB Crewcab....Building the Beast, aka Donkey!

I was in the middle of a post when my power went out

What I said was, sorry for all the posts Still getting used to the no editing after a couple minutes thing.

I borrowed this pic from Msgross. Since my low hump is so hacked up, if you could cut out the hump a little extra big, I think I'm going to make a "removable low hump" for my truck out of it. That way I can cut out the PO's hack jobs and not have to weld for hours putting the new one in

I'll take some better pictures when I get back from OKC and then I'll start cutting out the pieces.
