new truck bed

I have an 86 f-150 and have been looking around for a new 8ft bed which seems to be impossible to find. But recently I found something called a truck bed assembly and am not quite sure if this is what I'm looking for

Here is the link to the bed assembly:

It looks like it is a complete truck bed minus a tailgate, from a salvage yard. I have used a similar site in the past for some friends around my home.

Ford,Dodge,Chevy 8ft & 6ft truck beds

Shipping might be a problem.
I went to NC last summer and got a nice single tank one.
Friend went to WV to get a dual tank one for his 86. He hasn't done anything with it yet. I could check and see if he wants to sell it. We're about 7 to 7 1/2 hrs from Columbus.
You might have to do some traveling.
FYI if you are not doing a restoration...87-96 (97 S Duty) will work

Would definitely be interested if the bed is 8ft dual tank and has no rust

87-96 is basically the same? That's good to know!

The wheel well lines are different as well as the tail lights and tailgate latch. I even put a 92 bed on my 79.
