Looking at adopting, but can't tell if its a Shorty...
« on: January 29, 2010, 02:46:54 pm »


402, the guy says it a SWB, $1500? If its true, she'll be mine. Can anyone help me with the bed size, as it's hard to tell with a flatdeck
if it ain't leaking, it's empty

Shortbed is 61/2 feet, long is 8 feet
1978 C-10 SWB
1986 K-10 SWB
1975 C-10 SWB

And here I sit so patiently
Waiting to find out what price
You have to pay to get out of
Going through all these things twice - bd

Looks like its a short bed to me!
Some people are like Slinkies. Not really good for anything, but they still bring a smile to your face when you push them down a flight of stairs

Good news, its also bolted on, and not welded!
$1500, can I go wrong?

Sounds like a good deal to me, the flat bed would sell for 500-600 down here in Florida. So you could definetely recover some of you're costs.

It could be a 7.5 foot bed. That's the length for a short bed model.

If you buy it  toss that crappy air cleaner in the trash.
