Guys
I need to put my 1970 GNC stepside into service. I need to use it in my Handyman business to haul supplies and such. Being a single sidewall bed I am worried about dings and dents. Has anyone used a spray on liner or know of a bed liner to help protect? This truck is a low milage original rust free truck and I'd like to keep it that way. And no I cant afford another truck I have to use this one.

They work but will not protect your bed from dents.I would buy a diffrent bed that is beat up and put it on untill you can buy a work truck.Or be very careful and you should be ok.

I would line the bed with a plywood box, end, sides, bottom, and tailgate. The plywood will spread the force of things trying to dent the metal and should protect it nicely. It won't be as expensive as a line-x job.
