Does anyone have the wood dimensions for an original 1925 pickup bed that they would be willing to share?

Are you referring to a steel factory bed or a whole wood bed

I used 26-27 wood dimensions I just didn’t account for the plate in the middle of the bed as that was not original for a 25 steel bed. Bed wood dimensions are similar to 26-27.

Thank you very much. I found that diagram also but wasn’t sure the dimensions were the same for 25 and 26-27. Your bed looks great.

Do you have 25 bed strips. They are different from 26-27. I ended up using 26-27 after a few years of looking just so I can have a complete looking bed but if I ever get ahold of 25 bed strips I redo it

Yes, I do have the original 25 strips. It’s a pretty correct truck. We are restoring it for my 17 year old son. The bed is painted and the wood is our winter break project. Thanks again and happy holidays!

Awesome sounds like a good deal mine was not complete and I have been pieced it together for the last years and still not done. But such an awesome project for you guys. Merry Christmas happy new year
