    Cant believe I found this

    found a brand new bed factory primer
    had some minor damage...
    the guy sellin it repaired the damage (the right way and pulled the dents)
    and even delivered it 150 miles

    $400

    you cant see the repairs in the pics but he did a perfect job!
    It's a new never used bed

    here are the pics he sent me
    it was in his buddies barn for 10+ years
    the damage got it rejected by a body shop on a repair job
    the guy bought it from the dealer where he worked

    It's SO tempting!:evil:

    So far I can't decide...:shrug:

    sit on it and try to sell it for big $$ later?;)

    Make it into a matching trailer just for show:rolleyes:

    Or double bob it and use it on my 93 project truck!:looney:

    tempted to just throw it back on Craigs for like $800++:waytogo:

    It really is hard to find beds that aren't beat to hell an back. For $400 around here a bed won't be in near condition like that. You say it's factory primer and never been used? That's so badass I've never even heard of something like that

    Yeah, you also have to figure many of the 89-95's are still on the road. There are beds out there, but that's definitely the best condition I've seen an 89-95 bed in since mebbe '95... Nice find man! Good deal!:eek:

    Oh yeah, and I vote cut it up! :waytogo:

    my truck's bed used to be immaculate, then some mother****ers around here decided that my truck was nicer than their cars and suv's and decided to swing wide open. door dings all down the right side of the bed. left side isnt so severe really.
