Where is the best place to find a Flareside Bed to fit a 1967 F350? I have looked on Craigslist, but no luck! Thanks

 

8 or 9 foot bed? Also check for PU bed trailers on CL and wantads.

 

Traditionally they are 9' beds, but this is going with a F350 Crew Cab so I am not sure if the 9' will work or not.....

 

Check here & call Riff. Tell him Steve from Indianapolis sent you.

 

I have an 8 footer with no fenders. It has those cool utility boxes on both sides that you took off the fender and bolted them on. I got it several years ago thinking I would use it but never did. It's all taken apart and needs the new wood and the chains are missing. Real nice shape otherwise.

 

Can you send pictures?

 

I know where you can get a complete truck (f250 4x4) for a few hundered bucks

Its in Nor Ca 1 hr from Reno

 

Probably too far. Pictures? I found a 55 & a 57 8' bed Flareside. Would they work?

 

Not any time soon, computer quit recognizing my usb and daughter has my laptop for a while. It's in western South Dakota.

 

1957/72 F350's used the same 9' Flareside bed, known as the Express Bed. Not available for F100/250's.

1957/72: There are two different tailgates: B7C-8340700-A (49 13/16" long) F100 6 1/2' bed only / Everything else: B7D-8340700-A (54 13/16" long).

F100/250's were available with either a 6 1/2' or 8' Flareside bed, depending on their respective wheelbases.

 

Does this mean the fenders are different as well or does the extra inches just hang past the bedside?

 

1957/79: There are four different Flareside rear fenders, one right and three lefts.

ALL: B7C-16312-A Right & B7C-16313-A Left (no tire well).

B7C-16313-B .. Left Rear Fender with tire well: 1957/72 F100 with 6 1/2' bed / 1973/79 F100/250 with 6 1/2' & 8' beds.

B7D-16313-B .. Left Rear Fender with tire well: All 1957/72 except the above.

F350's were not available w/a 9' bed after 1972 and do not use a left rear fender with the tire well. The bed is so long, the spare tire mounts in front of the left rear fender.

 

So to get the 9' Flareside I have to go with 1957-72? Will the 9' bed fit on the F350 crew cab chassis, or were they only for regular cab F350's?

 

I tried to contact the Classic Ford Truck site personnel, but there was no answer.

 

What wheel base do you have? The 9 footers were a longer wheel base and I'm pretty sure they never did a crew cab with one.
