My rusty 66' short bed

The bed deck is rusted through at the front wall. I was going to crop it out and weld in new steel. Where can I find new bed deck steel?

Unless something has changed, you will have to find a donor truck and cut out good metal to patch in. Someplaces sell bed patches, but it doesn't match the corrugated pattern of our bed floor.

I got some this way, I put an ad in the parts wanted section. Took a short while but someone parting a truck was able to help me out.
