Bed Board Thickness

Greetings,

I am wondering if anyone can tell me what the thickness on the bed boards are for a 55 F-100? The reason I ask, I want to purchase Black Walnut and mill them to fit at required, but want to make sure I have the correct thickness.

Thanks,

You probably want 4/4 rough-sawn to get down to 3/4"
