Rust replacment panels

OK folks

I have located every supplier of rust repair panels on the net that I can. I am ready to order floor pans for my 70 F250. I have read that the JC Whitney panels are imports and can/will rust in 2 years. UNACCEPTABLE!

OK guy's who should I order from to get some lasting panels? I am currently looking to order from "Murphy's" $39.00 each side. Anyone do business with them?

HELP!!

Lee

Sorry,
Never heard of Murphys.
I bought cab corners from LMC for my 70 and they are import junk,contours dont match and they are crap.
I am lucky on floors.
Good luck.

Lee,
Haven't really seen anything I would consider acceptable.
I fabricated some a couple of years ago. It's not as tough as one might think. If you want factory, try a salvage yard. I am local to a yard (in Ga.) that is loaded with ford pick ups.
(it's a goldmine!)
A quick spark of the ole torches and walla!!!
Factory floors!!!
Best of luck,
Casey

If you told the secret location in Georgia, you would have treasure in Heaven for being like Christ and loving your neighbor as yourself!

I am sure it is not around Brunswick. Things rust fast there. Try north Georgia or central to north Alabama. I have seen good trucks driving around there with no rust yet.
