64-65,66 Beds

I just want to confirm what I think I already know. The 64s had a strait frame, parallel all the way front to back (approx 34" wide). Im thinking in 65 the frames widened behind the cab, using a different bolt spacing for mounting the beds. I need to confirm that I need a fleetside bed from 64 only to bolt directly to my 64 F100. Thanks guys

Nathan

Nate, the frame wasn't widened till 73. The bolt holes may not line up. I had that problem and just drilled new holes. There are some minor differences in the bed shapes, but they should interchange.
