Is this body part available?
Unfortunately I need to get some body work done due to a collision. I have been able to find every part except the piece that is at the end of the bed where the tail light resides. Is this a separate piece from the bedside? There is a seam there but I don't know if it's a separate piece. I've looked at LMC and NPD and it doesn't seem like they sell just that piece.
Any help?
Thanks.

Passenger. The body shop tells me they are going to pull it out rather than replace. I'm not sure...

Why is it that there's seldom time to fix it right the first time, but there's always time to fix it right the second time???
That's not an oil leak

Mine's a 1968. Thanks for the information. I'll see what the body shop says and keep the NOS set in mind.
Thanks.

Re: Is this body part available?
probably not. since it would be made to fit all 67-72 trucks it probably has the reflector hole cut out in it. you just have to cut off the bump from you old one and weld it over the hole.
