Price for a bed?

I'm in the process of getting my '66 F-250 4x4 back together. Things are giong well. I have decided to replace the bed (rust, damage,...). Found a bed in great shape (in an old guys barn), what is it worth? This is the '57-'60 styleside model, 8' bed and tailgate. There is one slight dent near wheel well, and very, very little rust. Of course I want to spend the least I can, but any ideas on what this is really worth?

What is the seller asking for it is a better place to start? How available are beds in your area?

It is worth nothing to me, because it is the old style, and my truck would have to have a 64-66 bed.

But I would think that finding a correct bed for the slick wouldn't be a daunting task with a little patience.

Going rate on a decently straight bed is about $600. $250 for a POS. Free if your lucky.

You could prolly find a pick up bed trailer for around $300 and easy to get home. That's what I did.
