-Truck in Need-

Ho Ho Ho! Twas the night before Christmas and all thru the shed, not a truck was stirring, not even Ole Red. All the stockings are hung for bright Christmas joy, but no gift was coming for one little boy.
Whitee sits in the shed all lonsome and blue, for his note to Santa for a truckbed is doomed. Then along comes Santa, and with all of his might, unloads a truckbed, all shiny and bright. Then he turns to the sky and yells "Merry Trucking To All, And To All A Good Night!"

-Well, moral of the story is, my white '78 F-250 needs a pickup bed (8'). I've looked around and cannot find any good beds. So I was wondering if any of you guys have an 8 foot late 70's pickup bed that you would be willing to sell. Preferably with mild rust or better condition. I live in northern Illinois, but if anyone has one out of state I'd still be much interested in hearing from them. So if anyone has one, let me know.

Any info is greatly appreciated.
