Have you tried Brother? The only other suggestion I would think of is to go though an issue of Classic Trucks and start calling people.

I realy don't like to disapoint you but nobody makes fleetside pannels. You are going to have to find a used one. Unless they have resently started making them all you can buy is patch pannels.
If you find a long box you can shorten it 8 inches out of the rear and 12 inches out of the front.

I am not sure. I Looked a couple years ago on every site I could find and nothing. I ended up Getting a long box to make a short one. Acually I got a hole truck Some body brought in to crush at the local recyling center. Lucky the owner is a car guy so he sets them aside. $100.00 for the hole thing 65 with a big back window.
