I was told by a local shell dealer that a early or mid 80's
chevy shortbed shell would be the best fit for my 71 W100
shortbed. I sold the one I had & want to get another shell.
What are you swepty owners using for a fiberglass shell?
Thanks for the info..

Thanks Al & hope all is well with you. BTW, that's a beautiful
65 Plymouth you're selling. Wish I had the bucks, but it motivates
me to get my 64 done. Power Wagon's running great with the new heads, but gotta pull it over the winter to fix some leaks I caused. Might
switch to a whiplash cam for more torque.

Thanks, that would be a blast! It's a Montana truck I bought last year. 1980 SE, Rebuilt 318, lots of new parts, with the NP435 4 speed with granny 1st gear, Dodge went back to part time 4X4 in 1980, NP208 T case with lockout hubs. Just a nice old stock solid cruiser that's the last year for the removable roof. I'll yank the roof eventually cause they look cooler that way.

Their like a 4WD convertible with the top off & reminds me of a
73 Blazer I bought new in 73 & put a soft top on it. That's one nice Ramcharger & great color combo, too.
