Default New guy with an old Dodge!

Hey guys, my names Jake. I have a 1984-ish Dodge D-150, 360 CI, 4 speed, 4x4. That I plan on doing a "frame off" resto on (except more like a bed off, or nose off.)I got a few questions reffering to the sheetmetal, yeah, ik, haha typical. Should I make a custom bed, or try to salvage what I have, if so, can anybody provide any links to replacement sheetmetal?

Depends on the condition of your bed. I would first call a good wrecker for a bed. LMC carries a lot of body parts for our trucks. Then again maybe you would prefer a good oak flat bed. Kind of depends on what you want the end product to look like.

Thanks for the quick responses guys, but doesn't lmc only carry 94-current dodge parts? As far as bed condition I'll try to get some pics, but until then I'll describe it as best as I can. Its a little more than your average fenderwell, the bed floor is also starting to rot... As well as it starting to spread to the whole bedside.
