1956 F350 Running Board

Could use some help. My project is a 1956 F350 with a 9' stepside bed. Because of the extra bed length, the running boards are also longer. Both of mine were wasted. I have been able to find one for the driver side, but I still need the passenger side. If anyone has a lead on one, I'd appreciate a shout.

Thanks,
Pappy

You're in tough country, there Pappy. Usable running boards for anything bigger than an F-1/F-100 are like gold nuggets. Keep an eye on eBay, although I doubt you'll find it there quickly. I did see one at a swap meet but it was the driver side as well. Good Luck.

Chuck,

Appreciate the shout back about my running boards and would love to discuss with you. Unfortunately I have not been a member long enough and made enough posts to be eligible to email you.

Please email me at mccaffed at bellsouth.net or give me a call at (321) 698-1917.

Thanks,
Pappy

Ive a 54 F350 with good boards if you need pix or dimensions. Seems like you could make up a set fairly easy from F100 and maybe F500 and bigger sections.

Gotta love them "real" trucks.

Carl,

Thanks for the response. The boards I need are approximately 82" long, measured right down the middle. If this describes yours and you would like to sell the passenger side, Please email or call me.

Thanks again,
Pappy

Nope, not for sale; the truck is a daily driver.
