Desperate need to fix Longhorn worktruck bed!!!!!

I have a 69 BB w/air CST C20 Longhorn work truck where the bed is a disaster.

The wood is rotten and about 15% is missing and another 15% could be ripped out with bare hands - it is that bad.

To make matters worse, the wheel house flanges are all gone as is the flange on the bottom of the inner side walls.

I see these plans of action:

1) find used Longhorn bed,
1a) find a used 8' bed,
2) replace deck with 3/4" Wolmanized plywood and use sheel metal angles to connect the wheelhouses and inner side walls,
3) find an 8' bed liner and fill up the 6" forward gap with wood.

There are 2 questions regarding this.

1) does anyone make an 8' bed liner?
2) does anyone make a Longhorn wood deck kit?
3) does anyone know about Markay Specialities? (a friend told me that they may have the deck kit, but internet searches have not yielded anything.)

Thanks in advance!
Tom
