Thread: Oak Wood Beds and Misc.

Tweet

You don't have to notch the wood. The metal strips fit over the top and the bolts hold it all together. I replaced the wood bed in my '62 that way. It takes a fistfull of small bolts and nuts. The only thing I'd buy from LMC or some one like that would be the metal strips. When you buy the bolts buy galvanized or stainless because they will rust otherwise. BTW mine was a Chebbie, but I assume Ford used the same kind of set up.

Probably a good idea about the Dennis Carpenter since they are only 35 minutes from me. I can just go in and pick it up. I may just go ahead and buy the whole wood kit, I doubt I will save much money looking around like crazy for a place to get me the boards. Not worth the time to save a couple bucks I am sure. Also, yes slick60s is a great site. I am SMF or Shawn F. on there. I am in NCFTO or WAS in that club but now we all started another club here called Carolina Fords. www.carolinafords.org A bunch of good guys there.
