You need to be much more specific when asking a question like this.

Styleside or Flareside? If Styleside, 1977/79 is the same. How many fuel doors, 6 1/2' or 8' bed? Custom, Ranger, Ranger XLT or Lariat?

F100/150/250 or F350? If F350, you need to mention the wheelbase.

That Doug guy lives kinda close to me, I've been seeing his stuff on craigslist for years. Always too pricey for my taste though

Yes but if you drive to where he is getting them,your fuel cost will add up.There is a decent short bed in parts now for 1000,but add that cost to drive to tenn and back and you see how it is...I road 6 states and back to get my doors /there getting harder to find

Good point about the travel costs. I meant though that what I had been seeing from him when I was finally in the market for one was rust-free but otherwise in disrepair.

Is he a member here?
