Rick, the '39-'47 Dodge, Plymouth & Fargo same bed for PT-81. I am somewhat sure the earlier PU bed (before '39) was slightly more narrow, completely different fenders. All the parts new if you want to go that route-steel beds (wooden floor), fiberglass fenders, hardware etc..
Hope this helps

I was able to purchase a complete body for a Plymouth truck for less than the price of a bed thanks for the info 8)
