Stake Bed, complete and finished
This flat bed is shown on a 52 truck that we built and the owner wanted a pickup bed instead. It was made from (2)1960s one ton beds. Only the stake bed is for sale. It would look great on any truck, 50s, 60, or 70s.
It is 78" wide and 8' long and rises off the frame to the flat surface 14". It comes with 4 side rails as shown. All wood is red oak and has multiple coats of spar urethane. All four corners were rounded by using 2 separate bed fronts, normally the back corners are squared off. The cross braces were welded to the truck's frame and carefully removed with a cutoff wheel, they may need some light repair. The bed has 6 amber and 3 red vintage glass (bee hive) running lights and 2 original style tail lights. Some pics show the bed as it was mounted. Must be picked up here, cannot ship or deliver. Was asking $6K and considering the work that went in to this bed and how hard they are to find, that's a fair price. Now $4,000. If interested, message me.
