Don't believe so. It seems like I explored this a few years ago. I think I have one original D/D bedstrip to use as a sample to make some on my Pullmax.

How soon are you going to have some available because there is no sense in me making the die if you are going to make them commercially. I am going to need some within the next 6-8 weeks.

I remember back, being confused about the bed strips too. Thought the 5 pickup strips were the same and figured I could get after markets. Wrapped my 6 originals rusty, bent ones with some old gutter channel and stuck it in the corner. So glad they didn't disappear. Worth there weight in gold. My buddy/painter worked them for awhile (then he worked my wallet) and they came out amazing. Those and rear corner panels got to be some of the rarest chunks of metal these days.

You guys are killing me. I am over here helping to bring Ford vehicles to Asia [btw, Focus is now the number one vehicle brand in China] but am way more than ready to come home and work on my Model A when the assignment is over. I definitely miss it as well as the Model A community.

Yes...I am interested in a set of bed strips.
