Bed Mat

Does anyone know of where I can find a truck bed mat that will have an exact fit for a 1965 Ford F100 Short Bed?

I cannot tell you for certain, but I can tell you that the upper dimensions of the bed are the same 1965 to 1979. I bought a 1979 tonneau cover and it fits my 1966 perfectly. I would find a 1979, and measure the bed.

I got it from Auto Anything.com. I had to get the part number from Extang. They make I believe 3 models that fit. I bought the Full Tilt so my tonneau opens like a hood.

Did you ever find a bed mat to fit your 1965 Ford F100 Short Bed? I am looking for one for mine.

Just if you didn't know, the post you are referencing is 5 years old.


There are many suppliers that I think you know about like Carpenter, LMC etc. I don't have one so I can't vouch for the fit. You may get an answer from someone, however if you did not just saying
- it is an old post and they may not be here anymore.

Kodiak,

You might check for one for a late 1970's F100. The beds are exactly the same size

Another option would be to look at Raptor Liner. It is a Do it Yourself bedliner. The kits I found were about $110 a piece, and it includes the spraygun. I have heard that they are a little thin if you only buy one kit. Raptor seems to acknowledge this because they started selling just the Material parts. So buy one kit and 1 package of Spray Material, and you could get it done by yourself. I also looked into masking tape that has a wire in one side so you can get that over the rail look with a sharp edge.

The mats will fit from front to end but the wheel wells on 1965-66, 67-72 and 73-79 are completely different,

I found a mat at my local Tractor Supply, so I'm going to cut it to fit.
