Slick 60's

I have a 64 shortbed, not a step side, with some rust in the bed floor. The rust is along the front of the bed between the floor and front wall and in the floor just in front of the tailgate. This is rust through and large holes.

Are there repair panels for bed floors or is it better to replace the bed.

What beds interhcnage with a 64 shortbed?

65 66 interchange with new holes drilled for the center bolts in the frame.

Its a little hard to help when one does not know where one is located.

For example if you are in the Phoenix metro area there are currently 2 rust free 64 66 short wide trailers listed for sale.. drive in hook up and take home.

No patch panels are available to match the floor section. But if one has a spare bed panels can be cut and used.

If one is not concerned with a factory restore a flat sheet metal panel can be fabbed to replave the entire bed floor.

There was also a posting here about one member replacing the bed floor with metal from a new f series truck. This has happened since the spring, and with a little looking, you could find it. It seems to be a decent alternative to bed repairs.

If I find the discussion, I will post a link.

I'm located North Of Columbus Ohio.

A western or southern bed is a good solution but a little pricey.

I looked for the posting about using a newer bed floor but could was not able to locate it. Seems like that would be a good FAQ reference topic.

Thanks.

I think the bed floor was a 08 super duty.Fella went by backyardresto but deleted most of his info.
