Hey guys, I am looking to buy a LTL and I found one that peaked my interest but it needs some rust repair. Both doors, both cab corners and the passenger side corner cowl piece. Anyone have any suggestions to get parts?

 

Obsolete, not reproduced, possibly available NOS or used, but where you'll find rust free parts in PA .. I dunno.

Here in LA LA Land, it's a different story...as long as you could find an L Series.

 

Thanks for the exploded view Bill. Are those numbers actual part numbers?

Do you know if green sales bought any of the the obsoleted inventory

 

Basic part numbers shown in illustrations.

The text section of the catalog required to add the apropos prefix and suffix to the basic part number to form a complete part number.

 

I am looking for ...
#02516 (this is the passenger outer A-pillar skin)
#280A56(this is the passenger outer cab corner)Also need drivers side too

 

F6HZ-8002516-AA (replaced FOHZ-8002516-A) .. Pillar-Front Body Upper Outer-Passenger Side / Obsolete

DON'S TRUCK SALES in Fairbank IA has 1 = 319-365-2751.

There's another on ebay under this Ford part number for a whopping $510.00.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
DOHZ-80280A58-A .. Panel Assy-Body Side (Cab) Rear Corner-Passenger Side / Obsolete

GREEN SALES CO. in Cincinnati OH has 1 = 800-543-4959.
------------------------------------------------------------------
DOHZ-80280A59-A .. Panel Assy-Body Side (Cab) Rear Corner-Drivers Side / Obsolete

No Ford dealer or obsolete parts vendor has any.

 

Thank you VERY much

 

I would be also looking for a spare cab. Your Louies are gradually disappearing just like ours down here in Oz.
C and H truck wreckers in Nebraska looks like they have a few bits.

 

When Ford sold their heavy truck operation to Freightliner, Freightliner was supposed to take over the parts business for the older L series trucks. Problem is that whole operation (Sterling) is gone now. You might try looking up former Sterling dealers, maybe there is something in Freightliner's network.

 

Well, I was able to find a WHOLE cab and doors in Ohio. Looks like I am taking a 7 hour ride each way tomorrow

 

And here is the truck I bought
87 LTL 9000
400 cummins
13 speed
Neway air ride
10 aluminum wheels/virgin tires

 

Good looking truck Brad. I've always loved the LTL's.

 

Very nice LTL. I've tracked down some smaller parts through the Freightliner network down here in Oz for my LN.
