Sounds like the bed is already full of Bondo!! Sorry but the only thing that could chip off like that would be bondo.

You may have misunderstood me, i had my stepside, and borrowed some pieces from a different shortbox donor truck. Two different beds. Both were just sheetmetal.

Dont sweat the body filler. Hell even new cars have body filler on them. Granted its not alot, but if it works for new cars, it can work on old ones too. Just feather out the spot with 80 grit sand paper, refill it, sand it smooth, prime it and paint it. Peolpe always seem turned off by fillers, its not that big of a deal unless your doing a concourse restoration.
