New Door Panels

[Ranger429]

How do we go about the funds transfer?

I'll have to get them boxed up to figure out a shipping cost. Send me your address via PM and I can get that done by the middle of the week. The covers are at the shop still and I'm leaving for Iowa tonight.

Those are in nice shape Scott

Does that truck have the headliner with the metal rectangles ?

Thanks Mark, for 30 years old and original I'd consider them near mint. No buttons in the headliner. It is rare to see the buttons in the seats. The crew didn't have any, my F-250 does.

I'd like to find some so I can do the headliner and the seat

I just took my ratty panels off in preparation for my new ones. They almost fell off by themselves.

Self-removing parts, lol. Good score on the new panels!

Scott has all the good parts. Wish the Bronco was in better condition, cuz those door panels were sweet.

Replacement Bed

Some of you may recall how holely my bed is. Had one found for me in much better shape. Not nearly as much rust.

I just sold an 8' rust free dual tank bed a few months ago.

A guy at a local yard wanted $200 for one barely better than the one I have. I didn't need a dual tank bed, but I'll survive. Maybe even weld it shut.

That does look pretty good, oughta clean up real well for you.

That's what I did on my bed. I had a dummy gas door that didn't even open...because I have the incab tank. So I took the door off, got a patch panel and she's smooth as a baby's butt now.

If you're only looking for DD quality...this is the way to go.

The $200. Supposed to be Made in the USA. I'll see.

looks good. I got Dennis Carpenter ones that the color was off for like $50 from Ebay. They fit perfect. I just had to paint them since they sent one blue and one red LOL

 

[78F250]

Here were the old ones. They had the aluminum trim on them. I decided to save that. Never know who might need it.

My "new" seat covers arrived today. I'm very pleased with the condition they were in. I decided to go ahead and install them. I still have to do the hog rings on the seat ends. Here is the result. Scott, I would give a positive rep thing if I knew how.

 

[Ranger429]

What a difference huh!

 

[78F250]

Definetly! I put a rebuilt 4 barrell Motorcraft (Holley) carb on today. It fired right up. I'm hoping by the end of the summer it will be a decent looking/running truck.

 

[bucks77ford]

That's a huge difference. Very nice.

Looks great!
