Bed help

I found a real nice 62 fleetside bed for sale.
Am I right in thinking that all beds 60-66 were the same?
What do you think a fair price would be?
Thanks
Pat

Re: Bed help

Long Bed// Short bed? I think the beds are the same but the cross sills were differnt. Just use the cross sills from your later bed on it. Not sure but I think the frames on the later trucks are wider then the older ones..

Re: Bed help

Condition of the bed will be a big factor also. I got a complete bed locally that was shipped up here fron AZ for 500.00. Not a spot of rust and staight. Just have to replace the wood and paint it.

Re: Bed help

Shipping and handleing from CA to TN is a killer
Would love to have one.If you find one for the right price ,I guess it would be worth it.Would not expect you to do it for nothing,if you stumble across one let me know
