[Oletrucks] Bed Strips

[GALE GORMAN]

Ric,

I guess you have a reason for wanting the strips without holes but the square holes are nice for holding carriage bolts. Sounds like you are ordering from Brothers as I have found their shipping costs outrageous also.

I think I ordered my bed strips from Mar-tex in Oklahoma, the same people who make the wood. You can order wood from other sources and the box may still read Mar-Tex.

LMC in Kansas also has reasonable shipping on large items. Brothers is on the west coast and they may not have found a cheap source for LTL shipping.

I'm currently building a custom flat bed for my '50 3100 5 window. I picked up a bed from a 59 GMC 1 ton om the cheap ,
and have fabricated it to fit the 50.
Looking for bed strips, I found one of the vendors that sells un-punched bed strips 77 inches long and bolts for a total of about $ 125.
Problem is they want $ 235 to ship them which seems outrageous.  I'm still searching for a vendor that sells the bed strips un-punched.
I'm wondering if anyone has done something other than the standard bed strips and would be wiling to share

Thanks
