Thou art mistaken about the 1961 D-200 having only a 7-1/2 ft bed.
I know of and can take you to, an original 1961 D-200 at a rural firestation, procured from civil defense,with the same original green paint as the other and it also has a mint 8ft stepside bed with original wood floor.
Dodge stepside truck beds came in 4 different lengths over the years and wheelbase determined which one was used,not weigth designation.
They were 6-1/2ft, 7-1/2ft, 8ft, and the 9ft used on the 300 series trucks of the mid to late 60s ? The 8ft bed is harder to find,WHY ? I have no clue ! BUT,
I have a hard time believing that at 46 yrs of age I can't read a tape measure correctly.
