Whatja mean work at a chevy dealer?????
What Pete really means is there was three beds avable for the 66 model year
A Styleside bed first offered in 1964
A flush side bed first offered in 1957
and a stepside first offered in 1957
If you need a panel for the 64 to 66 style side bed get a repair panel for a 66 to 77 bronco. It is a really close stamping.

Big66,
Actually I'd help you no matter what if ya drive a "Slick" and asked for help.
As for your fellow workers, they're just jealous because you have better vehicles than they do. Besides Most guys I know that work at a GM house drive FoMoCo to & Fro because they need to get there reliably & consistently too. At that's what it was like when I worked at a Brand X Dealership in the past. I drove Fords because I had too much trouble with others. . . .like getting them to last.
AND Dave "Step Side" is also a GM name & actually called Flareside by Blue Oval. You're spot on with the Slabside, but that's a hobbyist name, from 57 thru 63 they were also called Stylesides by "Henry" . . . . How confusing is that ?
As for the problem area on your LWB Styleside, we're talking about a Rh/ lower-rear bedside, behind the wheel opening correct?
