the wife's step side
Okay this is a longshot answer but my neighbor had the box sides manufactured locally by a sheet metal place. They did a really nice job and used a heavier guage sheet metal too. They even bent the round rail at the top of the sides.
My neighbor's is an 86 also and this was done about 5 years ago but I know the sheet metal company is still in business.
Like I said a longshot but might be worth a call to:
AL Melanson Co, Inc
126 Spruce St
Rutland, VT 05701
802 775-3572
They (Melanson's) may even be able to point you in the right direction. I know that the bed is a simple piece if you look at it and consider it's shape w/o the fiberglass fenders.
Good Luck.
