Another update and some more pics:
I just got back from the bodyshop. They told me I should have my truck back in about 2 weeks. I am sure looking forward to getting it - I hate driving that 16 foot flatdeck. It is a real pain to park it anywhere and get into customers driveways etc.
They have most of the parts there now and are in the process of doing the repair.
The used bed they found is in beautiful condition - very very clean!


And they have the new fender and hood painted on the inside and ready to go:

And they have the new rad support and intercooler rad installed as well:


I am really pleased with the replacement bed. Now it is up to me to alter my rack accordingly so it doesn't get crushed and cracked again. I really think I came out lucky on that one.
Most of the new parts are OEM with a few exceptions. I saw the headlight in a box - aftermarket. The hood is jobber too. Oh well......
This shop is doing a fantastic job for me. I give them 10/10 - 5 star rating for quality of work and service.
