Newbie needs help!

I'm new to FTE and have learned alot from reading the forums. I have a 56 f100 and am looking for one piece side glass and small rear window templates, does anyone know where i can find them. I'll be posting photo's of my new project in the next couple of weeks. Thanks for all the info.

Welcome to FTE! I'm a '48-'52 guy, so I'm not going to be much help to you on templates, but I can tell you that Mid Fifty F-100 Parts is one of the better vendors out there as far as quality, service, and price goes. They will no doubt be able to supply you with back glass in a couple different shades and also 1-piece side windows. Even with shipping, it might be a wash price-wise with getting your glass cut locally. Check out their glass page here:

If you don't see what you want online, call them. They'll probably have it.

Awsome site Bjorn, just lucked into a really good find. I just bought a 98 Lincoln Town Car for $500.00, low miler with a 5L, AOD it could be a driver. I figure I can use the drive train less diff ( they say it may be too wide ) and all the other goodies that come with it. then part it out and maybe get close to breaking even. Has any one ever used a seat from this car, it sure is in minty shape?
