Welcome. That is why they call 57'-60', the forgotten Fords! There just aren't as many resources for them. Stuff is out there but you have to look. There are folks on this forum that can point you in the right direction to some patch panels as well as used parts. They should be along soon. Pictures are always welcomed here!

I have a set of fenders for a '60, Hood for a '59, and a driver's door with a great skin on it. The parts are located in MO. Let us know where you are located and others can help point you to parts as well.

I am in pittsburgh Pa , also just bought the truck today. My wife picked it out , ill post pictures when i figure out how and find my camera lol . It was kinda a rat rod that some one gave up on so its kinda ruff but the price was right.

welcome 437, at least your dealing with a f100. there are harder things to find parts for. good luck with it. are you planning on keeping with the ratrod or more original?

I am going for more original with a engine /trans swap and slightly lowered .I have a 1969 mustang 302 engine hanging out in my basement , just need a trans now.

get a manual and order some free catalogs. that way you can see what they repop and how much it cost. then you can compare that with the used parts you find. keep in mind that repop sheet metal wont be as good as factory. fte, ebay and cl. get your wallet out and your well on your way.

I'm not sure if it's worth the drive but I have this I'm parting out. the front clip, hood and door glass is gone. The doors are good put not perfect.

If wish I know you were looking I may have sold you my rust free 59...

Welcome to FTE

AFAIK, no one is reproducing these parts.

Core support same 1957/60 F100/600.

Fenders same 1959/60 F100/350 with 15, 16 or 17.5 inch wheels.

Doors same 1957/60 F100/1100.

Ford didn't offer door skins for F Series trucks until 1968, so I doubt anyone is reproducing them for 1957/60's.

Call Dennis Carpenter (Concord NC) @ 800-476-9653, order a 1957/66 truck repro parts catalog...it's free.

I can probably get you rust free sheet metal, but you'd have to pay shipping from southern Nevada...PM me if interested.
