Description

Most of the stakes on any stakebeds I've had or seen in the past had been pounded on,beat up,cracked,bent up,welded on and other bad things,the ones on this bed are unbelieveably good. Don't see any cracks,not more than two or three hammer tracks,not bent,not rusty,most just very good. A couple have a slight tweak or bend on the top. The wood rails underneath are good,all the other wood including bed and racks is bad and will need replacing. The metal strips between bed boards may have minor pitting but all look restorable. The side boards originally were attached to the stakes with rivets,a few have been replaced with bolts but most are rivets and most likely will need replacing when new boards are installed. This bed came off a 1955 Ford F600 but didn't start life on it. There are brackets and/or braces that were used with some other truck. What it was on originally is unknown. The side racks were taken off to transport the truck and stuck back on but may not be in order where they hold each other on. I cannot guarantee every single piece of hardware is there. Pickup will need to be arranged by buyer. I have an older Case backhoe usually running that can pick this up and set it on a truck or trailer for transport home. Total length over the front pin pockets is 12'3 1/2" long,87 1/2" wide,not counting rope hooks.
