the bed was available in the Power Giant era 57~60, perhaps a bit earlier 55.5 (?) on 2wds, and on W300s starting in 1961.

I am unsure of the gear ratio, but if it has 5.87s that would be a bit slow with 7.50 x 16.0s.

Nothing underpowered about a 318 Poly IMHO.

It is a great truck, love to have it, maybe I have "seen" 10-12 W300s with that bed, and more D300s, owned one. I have a set of fenders. Later D/W300s used a modified version of the SRW fender, and are scarce.
