Bed rail
Some of you experts, is that bed rail factory after market? What does the factory one look like? I saw a set on another truck back in the yard.

I wonder what the wheelbase is on that truck. I've never heard of Ford making either an 8.5, 9 or 10 foot bed for these years. Judging by the trim piece, I'd say this was a custom-built bed on a SuperCab frame.

I'm heading back to this yard in a couple weeks. He has a scab with the dark green interior so I am grabbing some stuff. Full length dark green carpet, fire wall to back wall, dg visors, the dark green scab surround. Both sides and back wall. He has 2 sets of the green jump seats. I do not need those bc the truck came with those but will grab thwm if someone wants a set. It has the ford rear bench "hi-rise" set. Plus LOTS more. He has over 50 dents. Many picked over pretty good.

I had a 1969 Chevy C10 that was a Long Horn. It was a basic truck with a 9.5' bed. I know that is Apples to Grapefruit comparisons, but... sometimes those custom fab shops have crazy ideas!

Not a dent but a bump, still nice to see it running around.

for sure! You might even pop over to the bump forum and add it to their thread of this type too. I forget what it's called, or if it's the same as this at "Bump Spotting" or something similar.
I've been jumping around and even found a related thread in the '61 to '66 forum to add a picture to. Paul |

Finally was able to stop and meet this guy. People said he was mean and never sells anything. I introduced myself and come to find he knows my uncle very well. He showed me around his place and was nothing but kind. He is willing to trade and sell some stuff.

Dam it! I just left that area a couple weeks ago. For what? A place that doesn't even have good junkyards. I would have loved to swing by there. Request the town these trucks are in?

Where were you at? He’s getting to the point of letting stuff go, just not quite there yet. Some good stuff in the yard, some rust, some FUBAR.
Not trying to keep a secret but, do need to respect that he’s willing to talk about it and don’t have a big need to push my luck. |
