Default Looking for a NBS longbed near NJ

Was out and about this past weekend and had the truck parked in a small lot. From the second floor of a friends place I look down and see a big ford with a utility body start to plow the lot. Figured I'd head down there and move the truck before the guy hit it. Made it within 20ft of the truck and CRUNCH. Guy smacked it backing up.

Looking for a black bed so I can just do a simple swap but anything would work if its in good enough condition.

Whats up dude? You still working on that RCSB? Got rid of the Blazer right? I was kickin around the idea of getting a bed or doing a whole body swap to something else but i'm gonna hit the body shop this Friday and see what they say. My drive to build stuff just isn't where it used to be.

Few pics of the new ride. 25k miles, heads, cam, intake, longtubes, ls9x clutch with tilton hydraulics, esc built trans. Made 547 to the wheels before the head work.

Ugh, that was painful to watch. I've plowed before and it's easy to get sloppy, but holy **** that guy drove past your truck like 3 times!

Am I color blind or are you and the driver wearing the same jackets?

Yeah I saw him flying through the lot and was heading down to go move the truck but didnt get outside fast enough, that's how I made in there in a few seconds.


No idea what the deal is with the camera and colors. Makes everyone look like they have bright red on

Didnt see this until now. I ended up getting the truck fixed at my normal body shop, all covered by insurance and less hassle for me.

The Cognito arms worked out great. Being cranked the way I was I was eating ball joints frequently. The cognitos corrected the geometry and i'm still runnin the joints that came with the arms and they look perfect. They arent cheap but they are worth every penny.

Side note, the vette went 10.96@128mph this past friday at Atco, going to see if I can shave some more time off that soon.
