Well for my luck I looked and the junkyard and both they had and extended cab with a short box and a regular cab short box and both beds came up to the same size so I took a gamble want to clear the bed off the other truck and put the white one on top of it and amounts are perfectly

There are only two bed lengths, 6.5' and 8' and regardless of which cab you have if your truck has the short bed then any short bed prior to 97 will work. It's the same 6.5' short bed for regular cab and extended.
Good luck!

Well depending on how far you live away from Virginia like psych already got it both of the rear fenders no rust at all and it is super clean with one dent that can be pulled very easily I’ll be posting more pictures of it very soon

Odds are better at finding a good bed if the truck is without the wheel opening trims or 'flares' so to speak.

Around me there is zero hope of finding a non rusty bed anywhere. The one on my truck allowed me some practice welding sheet metal but it is awful. When i have a little time I'm building a flatbed.

yup at the time I got the doors and fenders off the 87 that donated its doors and fenders to my 96 I was wishing that I had a place to store that bed, it was perfect. My 96 isn't the worst bed I have seen., but this one was perfect without having to replace the wheel arch even if I only have to do the 1 side on mine.....
