1979 gmc shortbox stepside
« on: September 12, 2006, 12:28:00 am »
I own a 1979 gmc shortbox stepside, and am looking for any information on where I might be able to order replacment parts for the box.  They are all bolt on parts and mine are pretty rusted and rotten.  Any help would be awesome  Thanks

I got their catalogue, and for the two side panels its nine hundred bucks american, than with shipping it'll be a fortune.  Any places in Canada that anyone knows of.

Thanks
