A 1965 W200 is a transition year truck, does it have the 7 1/2 foot bed, or the 8 foot bed? If it has the 2 headlight grill it should be a 8 footer.
The 8 foot bed is pretty much the same as a 3rd series FF bed, the fenders are different, and the crossmembers may be different, but the bedsides, header panel, and tailgate are all the same.
If you found a 7 1/2 foot bed, toss it back, it is not worth trying to lengthen.
Hope this helps!
