Anyone know if a bed and rear fenders from a 55 Willys truck will match-up with an early 60's Willys truck frame?  Any significant mods needed?

as far as i know the beds are the same except possibly the tail gate decals and stuff on it. the fenders should fit no problem. they should be all good, the frames rear really didn't change much its only the front motor mounts and that stuff that changed.

I think the beds will fit, but they changed the gas tank location some in later trucks. Not sure about the hole/tank orientation. Early gate had the pressed WO and later it was deleted. John
