Does anyone know of a source where the ribbed material for pu bed bottom can be purchased ?

Thanks!

Do you have specs? Material thickness, the rib size, spacing, etc. Also, how are the outside edges attached?

I have a copy of the bed blueprints but they are at the sheet metal shop right now. I will post the answers when I pick the sheets back up.

Kdancy-

I don't know of or have never seen a source, but bentmetal here in this thread can manufacture a bed floor for you. The other option is if you're customizing, then chrom strips and wood in between is always a nice touch.

This website makes ribbed Pickup beds for Studebakers, but if the measurements work, they may work on your project.

This is the album link on photobucket. I have the prints in there. I also sent a copy to classic to see if they can build the ribbed floor.
