55" Ford Doors

I am in the market for a pair of door shells for my truck. The ones I have do not match and one is really beyond repair. Can anyone recommend a good company for these that provide a good fit and quality. I have looked at both LMC and Dennis Carpenter and since DC's are stamped from original dies and here in the US, I am leaning that way.

Thanks,
Pat

Mid Fifty Home - Mid Fifty F-100 Parts is offering them for 150.00 each less than DC. When MF calls theirs "nice reproductions" you can be assured that they are. A lot of MF parts are manufactured by DC, if you ask, they will tell you who's they are selling. If their catalog ones are not DC, they can get them for you and/or will tell you the differences if any. Mid Fifty has the best customer service and prices out there, highly recommended.

55 doors

I do not think dennis carpenter stamps the doors, They do some fenders, but I believe all the doors are stamped off shore.
