Good day FTErs,
can anyone provide me with the part numbers for the spare tire mounting bracket and the cut fender that fits the 1965 flareside?
Any hot leads on these for sale?

 

Since you brought it up, I'll be second in line if you find a couple. I may be interested in that myself.

 

Good luck on your quest's if you's find a hidden batch of them let me know. https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/1...ire-mount.html

Removed the 'cut' fender on the 65 due to serious rust which I kept, when time permits intend taking to auto body shop for estimate. Meantime, salvaged a standard replacement fender and tire rack and installed the tire under the bed. I have been looking for the fender w/ the indent for past couple years and have not been successful.

 

Have you thought about trying to graft the indent from your original wheel flare into a reproduction flare? Just a thought if your original is to far rusted may be easier to do it that way. I been looking for years to for one to put on my 64 still no luck on my end.

 

I did consider that however, came across a fender at swapmeet where seller had taken the standard fender and fabricated the indent and just did not look all that great, of course depends on persons workmanship. Actually, I just need to get off by backside because I believe it would be less labor intensive if I have the original repaired, there's cancer along the edge where the fender attaches to the step,other than that the fender is in fair condition?

 

that patch panel is available, I had to buy both sides for mine.

 

Appreciate the info; the fender is currently stored some 300 miles away, as soon as I fetch it, intend taking it to body shop. Fortunately kept the tire rack and original 16" rim.

 

If you do find the mount and the fender, you're extremely lucky. They're as rare as a virgin hooker

 

I remember her well

The mount is bout as hard to find as hen's teeth, have not seen but a couple on ebay over past 20 years. There's a 68 mount on ebay, looks similar to my 65, wonder if it would work with a little refab??

 

IIRC flareside beds are the same from '57 to '73 so the likelihood is it will bolt right up

 

If did not already have 1 the $150 plus $18 shipping may be enticing for one who wanted one???

 

East bound and down loaded up and truckin!!!!

 

1957/72 F350 9' Express Flareside bed is not the same...and there are TWO different 'cut-out' rear fenders. There are also TWO different tailgates, bed side panels and front panels.
