The Stovebolt Site Forums The Parking Lot Tons 'o Fun '52 GMC - Converting flatbed to "dump model"

Hi,

Need some guidance on a wacky idea of mine.

i plan to convert my 52 gmc 250 series to a dump bed. Given i don't have metal tools readily available nor the skills, may have a local Fab/Welding shop do the work. Is it complicated? Any ideas on cost - rough ball park ...100's of green backs of 1,000's?

Prior owner of my 52 gmc threw in a new PTO unit. Guess that is a whole nother ball game to get that installed.

Appreciate any guidance you all offer.
