Well you better go stepside as a long bed isnt going to fit on a 76 unless you lengthen the frame! :wink:

Unless you already have a long bed and then a stepside would be too short! Let us know what you have. The short wheelbase is 102.4 inches and long wheelbase is 117.9 inches.

Good luck finding a stepside in Oz, good tubs are hard to find also. Sold a tub few weeks ago, went for $500.

It does have a license plate so technically it is a street truck, that sets off car alarms and makes kids cry. lol
