Platform and rack sizes

Looking for the factory size of a platform and rack for a 1966 Ford F100. Considering cutting down and narrowing a bed off a earlier Ford truck. Any one have any suggestions on which is the best way to do this?

Thanks

Vito

I can only guess at what you mean by ‘platform and rack sizes’ . Do you mean a flatbed? Frame? I got nothing for you at any rate, but those aren’t terms I’m familiar with, and probably others as well.

Yes. Flat bed size. Poor wording on my part.
