step side would be great

when i got the truck it had a 58 or 59 bed on it, its very solid but just looks very out of place i would love a nice compleet stepside.

believe it or not, that bed 58 or 59 style bed would be correct for 62. Ford did some strange things in the 60s, that was one of them. A junk yard is your best bet for a flareside (stepside) bed.

A bed to consider is the later 80s flare side. Truckfarmer had one that looked totally kewl in red. Possibly easer to find that older iron. or the correct bed can be had for an arm and leg new from Dan Carpenter reproductions.

Did your '62 bed have any of the side trim? I could use some if you saved it. What about the tailgate?

Thanks, Dan
