To the best of my knowledge there isn't currently an aftermarket maker of bedsides. I could be wrong though. I seem to remember hearing about a company that was making fleetsides but only for the short box.
Fleets came in both long & short lengths. I don't have my shop manual with me at present to double check lengths(it's at the old man's 40 miles away). I want to say the long bed measured around 96 inches. Not sure what the shorties measure.
You don't see to many longbox fleets being restored, they get passed up for either shorty fleets, or long step-side replacement beds.
Personally I like the idea of a long fleetside that is lowered a little. Would look pretty mean i think if it were done up right.

-'58 long fleetside, a long time in the making.
