Hello Group! I'm hoping to get a recommendation for a body shop or a rust repair guy who can help me with an issue I'm having on my 1985 F150 Flareside.
There are a few lower bed panels that are rusted out which are keeping me from installing my bed-wood properly. They are heavily rusted and are like sandpaper so the weatherproof polyurethane coating on the wood is immediately stripped away...No Bueno!
So, I'm hoping to reach out and get some help to find an auto restoration shop, or a metal shop, or a body guy, or somebody who can help me out!
Pictures below, thanks in advance!

bed flipped upside down to expose the rusty-rails...
one of the 4 panels, you can see how rough the underside of the metal is.
this one is the worst of the bunch...totally corroded and too rough to put wood up against.
the last one with a small glimpse of the cherry wood I want to install...if you look close you can see where it's marred.
