Hey!

I am looking to convert the bed of my 77 SWB fleetside to wood. I know this was not an available option on the bed originally. I am having difficulty sourcing the strips to hold the wood in place. Mar-K offers a kit to do it, that requires replacing the front panel of the bed. My thought was just to "pinch fit" front to back without the need for the clips or whatever brackets they use on the front. Also, the bed is completely apart does anyone have the inside dimensions of the bed?

It was a rare factory option but longbed only. They pop up for sale occasionally. I buy the stainless strips from speedway

Not familiar with the mar k kit and couldn't find on site
