look for a local upfitter business(sell flatbeds and service bodies). Short beds are harder to come by, but they normally have a lot of bed takeoffs. You might get lucky!

Search Craig's list. I'm not sure where you are located, but I saw a short bed for sale in the CT area for 775, which is not bad price

Not sure where you are from but try Southern Truck Parts in Utica Michigan. They had one.

Welcome to FTE. I'd expand your junk yard search to include bigger cities. Lot's of people in town buy the short beds to make getting around easier.
