I have a new neighbor that moved in today and he is a HUGE FORD fan. I was talking to him about different things and he says he gave away a truck with a perfect short stepside bed, but it was a 1961 model. would that work on a 67-72 frame and look good?

i would assume it would look fine. i can't remember if the frame widths are the same or not. you can always make it work.

the frame widths are the same, not sure if the wheelbase is, i will need to look that up.

I am almost positive that they are the same.

Thanks guys, I think I am gonna have him see if it is still available. It is either that one or a mid 80s flareside...
