    When people drop a truck off and just say do your thing, do they not even discuss ideas wants or needs or pricing?! I keep hearing shops say that and I’m baffled

    Love your craftsmanship, do you know or have any resources for me to look to about converting to a short bed on a 1962C 10…?
    I am struggling to find any information, or maybe even some dimensions regarding the 62, seems as though everything after 62 is easily accessible for short bed conversions .
    Thank you any information would help !
