Front Panel for 65 F100
Come to find out nobody makes a replacement front panel on the bed for a 65 F100 fleetside truck. NPD sent me the stepside version when I told them I had a fleetside. Anyway I am looking for a panel. If anyone has one and willing to sell at a reasonable price I would be interested. The truck is at the paint shop now, and this will obviously hold it up.
Thanks

IMO, you confused the issue when you ordered the panel from NPD for a Fleetside.
And...if you continue to look for one for a Fleetside, you may get one for a Chevrolet!
Styleside = Ford terminology / Fleetside = Chevrolet/GMC terminology.
1965 F100 = 2WD or 4WD? These trucks use two different Styleside beds.

B7C-9900124-A .. Styleside Pickup Box Front Panel (short & long beds ~ same-o same-o) / Obsolete
Fits: 1957/60 F100/350 / 1961/65 F100/250 4WD / 1961/66 F350 / 1963 F100/250 2WD (not a Uni!) / 1966 F250 4WD.

C4TZ-9900124-A .. Styleside Pickup Box Front Panel (short & long beds ~ same-o same-o) / Obsolete
Fits: 1964/66 F100/250 2WD / 1966 F100 4WD.
No FoMoCo Dealer or obsolete parts vendor has either one NOS. AFAIK, no one reproduces them. I looked in Carpenters, Carolina Classics and The Truck & Car Shop catalogs = nothing.

C7TZ9900124A .. Styleside Pickup Front Bed Panel (short/long bed same) / Obsolete
Fits: 1967/72 F100/350.
The only parts of 1967/72 Styleside beds that are the same as 1964/66 F100/250 2WD & 1966 F100 4WD Styleside beds are the tailgate attaching parts.
The tailgates will interchange, but are different styles.

That is true, but only for the Flareside front panel: B3TZ8300124A = 1953/72 F100/350.
Most of these aftermarket repop parts sellers have no Ford parts catalogs and the counter people that work for them are 10 buck an hour no nothings...are just there to wait on customers, take phone orders, and...
The customers better know exactly what they want...what year, model and etc.
I was at one in Orange recently, overheard a conversation at the counter where a walk in customer was having a hissy fit. It seems the cluck behind the counter didn't know a 1965 Mustang from a 1975 Mustang!
