Have you checked out the 1980-1986 Bullnose area?
1980 - 1986 Bullnose F100, F150 & Larger F-Series Trucks - Ford Truck Enthusiasts Forums


You will get more help over there.
When you start pilling it apart take a LOT of pictures & notes of how it came apart so you can put it back together.


As for parts it depends on what you are looking for. Door panels LMC and think Denis Carpenter may be others.
Seat looking to recover it or replace the whole thing. Don't know of new whole seats but covers try LMC or if looking for stock covering try SMS and have a local shop sew it up.

Thanks. I don't navigate this site very well. I'll give it a try. I have LMC door panels . I hate them. They don't match.. Interior I need 2 door panels and an original bench seat.

Thank you
