I actually got done with the 1 ton to 1/2 conversion faster than I expected. Figured it would time out about the same time as Carlisle, PA in August, but am at the point where I would like to get the bed on for test fitting and such. Anyone come across any good sales on new ones? I guess I just missed the Mar-K 10% off sale by a day.

Sorry about that 52. Yeah that would have been good since that is when they were offering the 10% off.

Check with Mar-K anyway. They run that free shipping and/or 10% discount most of the time. Also ask about stovebolt member discounts. They have some great reproduction parts for a good price.

Called Mar-K and pretty much they don't know when the next sale is going to be. I would much rather get the entire setup from one place, but I am sure I can get the entire bed for around a grand down at Carlisle, Pa and salivate looking at the other trucks there. I just have to wait until Aug to get it if they don't have one before that.
FriedGreenTmater, tried the stovebolt member discount nothing there either.
I did get a few bites today on my bed sides up for sale. My original intention was to take 2 beds and combine them to create a 9ft bed. Again trying to keep the 1 Ton, but then I said to myself either ___ or get off the pot and do the chop. Much easier than I thought it would be, front to back only off by 1/16" considering I was originally off by 1/8" I figure I have improved the over fit. I guess in the mean time I focus on selling the sides(4) and the front and back pieces, much better for a rat then what I want.
Thanks guys for the input as usual very appreciated.
