Missing Bed

On 64 style the center of the bed is gone. They put wood all the way across attaching it to the cross members. Is the original bed bolted or tack welded to the remaining bed around the fender wells

1964 f100 It's the style long bed. It should be all metal but the center part out to the fender wells is gone. It looks like the bed floor came in five pieces. A piece in front and one behinde the fender on both sides and one big piece down the middle

Too bad you don't want any e-Mails.

I would have sent you a reference that sells centers with cross beams, as well as smaller outer patch panels on sides fore & aft of your wheel wells. . . .Oh well good luck finding them by yourself & on your own.

Now don't hold out on us! I would very much like the info also. I have a 64-66 short bed that needs panels and i am just too lazy to make them my self.

Most online ford catalog parts dealers, Dennis Carpenter, Obsolete Ford Parts, John's F100, LMC, sell wooden bed componets. Could not find listing for bed parts with Autokrafter. Believe the kits for the wooden beds can run between $250 and $300. The cross members run about $40. Suggest going to their website and check out their online catalog to see if they have what you are looking for. A couple carry a few items for the all metal bed, but as William indicated, would look in salvage yard.

Good luck,
dave
