1973/76 Styleside left quarter panels (bedsides) have exposed fuel cap(s). 1977/79 Styleside left quarter panels have fuel door(s).

Ford did not sell "skins" for Styleside quarter panels.

The entire panel (27840 right & 27841 left) which included the wheelhouse, front/rear sections of the bedpan...was all that was available (see pic).

1977/79 F100/350 with 6 3/4' Styleside Bed:

D6TZ-9927840-C .. Right Quarter Panel (same 1973/79) / Obsolete

GREEN SALES CO. in Cincinnati OH has 1 = 800-543-4959.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
D7TZ-9927841-C .. Left Quarter Panel with one fuel door opening / Obsolete

No Ford dealer or obsolete parts vendor has any.
--------------------------------------------------------
D7TZ-9927841-E .. Left Quarter Panel with dual fuel door openings / Obsolete

No Ford dealer or obsolete parts vendor has any.

Ok Thanks NumberDummy do u know if a person can take a 8' box and cut out a piece and weld it back together to make it a short box just wondering I have a box but it needs new sides on it the rest of the box is good, I see where you can buy panels for the sides but don't really want to go that way if possible would like to do the whole side
Thanks again YooperUno

It would be take a lot of time and labor to cut a 8' bed down to a 6 3/4' bed.

Here in LA LA Land, where it hasn't snowed since 9/1949 (!), 6 3/4' & 8' Styleside beds can be found.

I know where there's a minty 1977/79 8' bed with dual fuel doors. It's located at an Opel wrecking yard in Rialto.

Right side (D6TZ-9927840-C) is the same 1973/79.

Left side (D7TZ-9927841-C) is 1977/79 only, has a single fuel door opening.
