1931 Roadster pickup

[26Tudor]

I know the top bows are there, they are inside the body now, you can see parts of them in some of the photographs on this thread. The windshield frame and stanchions are there. The Wide Bed part, I'm not sure, there seems to be some confusion about the bed on it on this forum right now... it's what the guy bought in 1965, that much I DO know.

You definitely have a narrow bed. Go to the illustrations of the tailgates in some of the vendor catalogs and look at the lower corners of the tailgate. Yours are rounded like the narrow bed not square like the wide bed. There is an illustration at https://www.mackhils.com/mack_produc...?CategoryNo=20
but it is not very clear (if you click on the illustration it will blow it up so you can see what I mean). This is a good supplier for truck unique parts. The wide bed probably carried more cargo but I prefer the look of the narrow bed. There is also more detail (raised belt areas) on the side of the narrow bed which makes it look better. One other thing to watch for is the windshield wiper. It was used on '30-'31 open cab trucks and '32 open cars. The correct windshield wiper is an expensive part.
