Wow...musta missed this. But I would like to point out that this thread is a perfect example of chubby guys thinking their chit is gold plated. We Ford guys see that truck and say it's an $8-10k...if there was a comparable chubby, they'd say 20k. I just don't get the discrepancy. I'll admit, back in high school when I was flipping trucks I looked at a few chevy's...and with my ford background I thought I could get them for 1000-1500...owners come back with 4500-6000. Nuckin Futz.
That being said to the OP...if you paid 10k for the truck, it probably won't get any higher. These older pieces of steel seem to hold there value if restored/unmolested originals and don't go up over time. Sure, sometimes you get the ridiculously nice restore and can get 25k for it...but those are few and far between.
As for the 8ft FLAREside bed, they definitely exist. I've only seen 3 of them though...almost bought one as a matter of fact, but couldn't come up with the funds. Boy oh boy, what I wouldn't do to find another one.
