Those look great!

Thanks for posting this!

 

they are nice, but watch the price. i don't know about the chevy but the 28 to 32 ford you can get for about 50.00 on ebay.

 

Hecho en Chine vs. Made in Canada? or just profit margin?

They look too nice to step on!

 

don't know, but mine are nice and shiny and look good

 

Pretty work--that fellow has got some talent--I'd say

 

They've been made for Fords for some time. Most of the repruction parts places have them for under $60 a pair. I have a pair with the Ford script logo I bought maybe 25 years ago, these are the same except with a different logo:

 

I also have the ones with a Ford Logo. Here's a pic:

 

How much do you want for the plates? I would be interested. Thank you, Jeff Agrall lagrall1@gmail.com

 

Ummmm.... I'd be willing to bet they aren't available any more, since that post was in 2010, and Julie is dead...

 

Ok, thanks for the reply. I didn't know. Thanks Jeff

 

Ford never offered these step plates, they're aftermarket.

They were first offered in the early 1960's by SoCal Pickups and Panels, now out of business.

Ross: That's a bet you don't wanna make, as these plate are readily available. For one source, see page 72 in DC's 1948/56 truck repro parts catalog (2011 paper version).

Here in LA LA Land, Car & Truck Shop in Orange and Early Ford Store in San Dimas have them.
