Hi Ken,

Welcome to FTE.

As far a s body panels are concerned, the cabe is a welded one piece assembly. There's cabs for sale on CL or E-bay regularly. Fenders are getting to be a little harder, but they are out there in the same places. There are a number of places that make fiberglas fenders for F-series but I'm not sure if they are the F2+ fenders.

Your bed panels are going to be impossible to find - they are not in reproduction (and the back fenders for those are different than than for the F1s.

Odd as it sounds, you might get more and pay less for another drive trainless truck with good fenders on it and the cab than you will buying them seperately and shipping.

I have a set of rear fenders. Also you can buy patch panels for the back of the cab, front cab mounts, bottom of front fenders and that center valance at the bottom. You cannot buy bed parts.

Are they F2+ rears or F1. I know someone else who was looking for F1 rears.
