Bed restoration

Hello

We all know that the bed's on these old trucks are a problem area when it comes to rust and rot. I have search far and wide for replacement sheet metal to correct this issue. I have been sucessful with all I have needed except the cross members under the bed that sit on the frame. Does anyone reproduce these things?

Thank you

Carrot

I'd check with AMmuscle or dansfordtrucks. Ammuscle sells new but not sure if he has frame stuff. Dan has some stuff here:
