STERLING STINGER Posted February 10, 2012 Share Posted February 10, 2012 i hear theres a short bed at a local pick n pull by smithe the other day so i figured id go check it out. there usually crappy so i look first. i get there and the bed is mint....i mean mint it must of came from down south somewhere because there is NO rust anywhere. just some faded paint and a crapped out pioneer sticker on it i go back to the office to pay for it, $125.00 plus tax and i ask them how much to rip it off for me $35 ....i say do it, he gets on the mic and radios the lift to go get the truck. when the truck came in from the yard, i noticed a crazt dent above the dr side taillight, a mark from the fork sliding across it and a fork puncture through the flair. :wall: :wall: :wall: :wall: :wall: needless to say i started to scream on the outside and cry on the inside i still took it and they threw in the taillights and the tailgate cuz of the mishap! oh well, i got a bed now....its only been 3 years that ive been looking for one....lol total price $166.00 here are some pics Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xjrev10 Posted February 10, 2012 Share Posted February 10, 2012 I find it amazing and a great thing that most yards don't see really any value in these trucks. Most of the time the parts are dirt cheap! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hick92 Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 If your okay with doing a little bit of dent pulling and bondo then its all good. Plus free stuff thats always a positive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glundblad Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 While it is definately a stroke of bad luck, I would take that dent on the sheet metal over rust around the wheel wells any day. You still came out pretty good. :cheers: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
