Well I stopped and looked at the SWB 79 some more. There is quite a bit of rust in the bed to the point where the bolts are barely holding it on while the floor pans seem pretty close to being toasted. The guy that owns the auto lot said everything was 20% off so I might be able to get it for around $1000. I just need to see if it would be worth swapping everything over. Questions, comments?
