Flareside bed NOS side panel value
Have a 1961-66 driver side NOS flareside long bed panel. Any idea what this part is worth? Got it thinking it would work on my 74 but it is different so I can't use it.

Seriously guys, I normally post on the dent forum but since this part is for the 61-66 trucks figured I would get some kind of useful response here. Any ideas on value?

If it were me I'd compare your nos bedside to the cost of an nos fender both front and back and I think you can buy repoped f100 stepside/flareside panels also (but not sure on that) then factor in the cost of a good used dry state bed. Another factor is that, and I may be incorrect, there are fabrication shops around who will reproduce f100 or f250 stepside bed panels given they are mostly flat panels with straight bends (expensive I'm sure). I'm not up on all that but I do have a rusty flareside f250 bed and I'm a tightwad and don't care much whether it's factory original as long as it looks factory original so I'd go $200 if I were in the market. Also check similar stuff on craigslist (maybe Ebay but usualy everything is rare and golden on Ebay). I think I could score a good dry state bed for I dunno $500 if I got serious?
Just throwing some ideas out there since you didn't get any serious help first time around. Maybe someone with better knowledge of the subject matter will show up. You might also try slick60's forum as another source of information if you haven't already.

It seems that nobody is repoping the long bed flareside panels therefore I can't find any prices to compare with. The long bed side panel is not flat but has the inner fender well unlike the sort bed units.

To me the long bed panel you have would be similarly priced to a repoped short panel. To some people being NOS is more desirable just depends on who wants it but a slick isn't a vintage Mustang or Camaro or Charger, so the panel is only going to be worth so much. If you want to sell it consider putting it on Ebay with a minimum or reserve close to the price of a repoped short panel. Might sell might not. Just an idea. (BTW shipping it will be something you will need to research)
Also I think the 61-64 side panel may be different than the 65-66 but not sure. edit: I should add I also think the F250 is different than the F100 flareside bed (taller?). Something to check out before and if you list it for sale.
