Any tips on sourcing a genuine Ford script flatbed?

[1935BB]

Looking for a 12 footer. I have a lead on one but its non script. I would hate for one to "pop" up after buying the non script one.

I tried Hemmings and Ebay but nothing really in the South East.

Its for a 157 inch wheel base 1935 BB

Thanks

MG

The guys on the Ford Truck Enthusiast site, 48 - 56 section, are always on the lookout for script beds. You might check in over there, there are quite a few in GA/NC/FL etc.

Hi all; I found a 12 ft'er that was non-script, but totally identical! I ended up carefully welding in a script piece from a junker. Always another solution. For a '40 G8T military. Later Newc

Newc,

I have to ask ... I saw this very nicely done several years ago back home. Is "Newc" your name, OR does it have to do with where you live?

Great tip, I am creating a user name tonight.

That is one heck of an idea as those flatbeds are getting harder to find.

Thanks guys!

I have a Ford script flat bed on a 52 F1 I want to sell great shape.
