i have a 78 macho, silver the real deal, but the beds rotten. if i swap the bed from a 79 and i paint it and stripe it is my truck still a macho or is it worthless? i really want a clean body but the bed is unuseable due the wheel wells

It's better to save the truck even if it means
swapping some sheet metal, even a complete bed.

In the future, trucks with all of their original body parts,
may bring a premium. But, it's more likely that the higher quality
restorations will be worth more. For many trucks that means
using the best parts you can find. it may be important to
photo-document before you start and as you go, to be able to
verify that it's and original Macho. Still a macho with a Better
condition bed.

Now to find a better Bed!!!!

They are getting really scarce.

the previous owners decided that to clear 35s on the red 79 dodge theyd weld square tubing to the frame and to the frame of the bed :o previous owners down right scare me sometimes
