2nd series bed very difficult to find. INstalation is not that hard need 4 guys to set it on. Reasonable is relavent A nice second series bed would be in the thousands.
Build flatbed , dumptruck body, wrecker or, water well drilling rig, or any other interesting body it would be correct and a ton more interesting. The purchase of such a bed would be much cheaper. It would be historically correct these were sold as work trucks a lot of them had purpose built body installed or put on after the sale and a little use and were sold as cab and chassis. To much emphasis on pickups not enough on the varied lives of these great trucks. I have a pick up one but it was a flatbed when I got it took two years to find the correct bed. When I get my next one it will be a flatbed or something more interesting. Just my 0.02 cents
