My personal suggestion, for whatever it's worth, would be to search high and low for an original bed in the best condition that you can find and spend less time making any repairs needed to that bed than you would messing around with a brand new, non-factory, bed. This will be my rule of thumb moving forward on any early pickups I build.

Kind of my experience as well. I bought in pieces so it was easier to modify as necessary so as to replicate an authentic box.
I'd witnessed these sold as assembled and I was able to do a much better job.
