I get my parts from The Old Car Centre in BC. They have a catalogue for 48-66 trucks. They don't have many parts to hot rod your flathead but they do carry everything you need to give it a complete rebuild.

Napa is a good parts source for older trucks, I got a master cylinder rebuild kit for the clutch on my 57 F350.
Another place that I like with good service / prices is Swift Filtration on 50th street. A newer store with very knowledgeable and experinced staff that are friendly and helpfull. Mostly for the 70`s and up parts but they will try for what ever you may need.
George Moir in Stoney Plain AB. 780-963-7334 I believe has a source of parts for Model T`s up to 56 Ford trucks.
I don`t have any Flatties yet so I haven`t any info on them. If anyone does let us know. If you have jitney`s web address please post it here or a phone number as I have never heard of them before.

I go to napa, or Lonestar here in PA. My bro in law works at the napa in North Battleford, so I get a good deal on stuff directly through him too.

Wow, Keith Lee is THE Flattie garu and seems like a really nice guy when I meet him at swap meets. One of the Lee`s have a sweet 53 F100 in light blue primer with red steelies that`s an awesome daily driver.
