I have a 79 chevy k10 longbed and needing to get a new bed for it. i was wondering if i can put an 80's bed on it, I know that they changed the body mount holes but will it still work??

They are all the same as far as mounts go.  Just look for a dual tank bed, that way you will be covered.

gas doors are on opposite sides and the 2 of the bed bolts aren't in the same spot.  Other than that they will swap.
