Bed board hinges like this?
Hi folks! I'm looking for hinges like this to open a bed board up like this picture. This guy "didn't know where he got them". I've seen them a few yrs ago as well. Also, any links to paint codes is appreciated. 1970 GMC blue. Thank you!

That could come in handy if a feller was in the "Import/Export Business" Or also into brewing [ahem] "Alternative Bio Fuel". Lots of possibilities with a trick floorboard.

Re: Bed board hinges like this?
The machined aluminum bed wood hinge kits are nice but maybe a little too "billety" for a lot of truck guys.
Laser cut steel parts could be produced for a fraction of the cost of machined aluminum. The attached pdf drawing shows the concept. There would still be a few details to work out but it should be doable. Doug

There would be nothing wrong with steel ones. Just be sure and keep the paint touched up or powder coat them. LockDoc
