79 Bed side tool box (how rare)?

I went junken yesterday and came across a 79 long bed with the tool box on the side, it's not to bad of shape it has a few tin worms and it also has the race track trim. I don't need the bed side because my 78 crew cab has dual wheels and I'm looking for a rollback bed. How hard are the tool box bed sides to find, do I need to go back and get it just to have for myself or someone else. You never know when you might need it. What price should be paid for this?

Well, I paid 50.00 for both of mine, including having them cut out. Rare?
I am installing them on my crewcab.

I dont know if I would say that they are rare... But when you want one they are allways hard to find.. When ever I come across something I might be able to use on another project down the road... I pick it up... mind you ... if the price is right...

Ive had a parts truck with the tool box bed... And The truck Im redoing now has the tool box bed... I didnt need two beds... So I just salvaged the bedside off the other bed(most of the parts truck bed was rotten) and put it into storage if I happen to need it later...
