'72 Lower molding
I was about to buy a complete lower molding set for my 1972 F250 from LMC Truck Parts. I wrote them asking if they sold the molding kit that fit the toolbox on my truck. They wrote back saying they lost their supplier for 49-3050, so at this time the part is currently unavailable. Bummer 
. I can't find a lower molding kit anywhere, upper, upper everything is upper molding and I'm about to paint my truck. Some of it is trashed and unworkable does anyone know where I can find some? New, used or NOS. I did find pieces being sold on ebay but wouldn't you know it, they aren't the ones I need, I could use them to fill missing spots I guess, but I'd rather not if I can avoid it.
Help!

(sigh) As usual, the OP provided scant info, all we know is that it's a 1972 F250.That's why I asked what model it is (post #2).

wrong moulding
What's the wrong moulding? You mean the picture I included that came off the truck or the part number that was given? As far as I know the camper special and the sport custom are the only ones that has the moulding pictured, could be wrong though, don't know. My Truck, 1972 Ford F250 Sport Custom 351 Cleveland V8 Engine (rebuilt). Long Bed single cab. That's all the info the guy that sold it to me gave me, This lower side moulding fits '67 to '72 F100 and F250, I think 350 as well anyway the parts are listed that way. Know where I can find some? Thanks

Okay
Bill meant if you have a Ranger or Ranger XLT then I would have given you the wrong part number. But I gave you the correct number. Yours has 3 painted lines. There are none on the parts locators I use presently. But one may pop up in the future. Every once in a while bring this thread back to the top andI'll run that part number again for you. And/Or watch Evilbay.

Okay thanks a lot. I'm bring the truck to the paint shop sometime next week but I had planned to get the paint shop put on the new molding since they would have to replace the old ones anyway. I bought left and right rear bed moulding on ripoffbay even though those are in fair shape, I was going to cut an old one with dents to fit the tool storage box. Ain't right, but good for now. I found this site: https://www.nospartsltd.com that offers lots of NOS parts. Waiting for an answer.

Yep
I told you all a guy sold me the Truck, actually it was my brother in law 
I grew up down the street from him and I married his sister, our 40th is in July WoooHooo
. So I know the Truck well. He started the restoration (drive train and innards) I'm going to finish it. We both retired to a rural area, he lives next door so I told him he can still use it whenever he wants. We've seen a few F100's but we have yet to see a F250 in our area. But I'm sure they made a boat load of 'em.

Yeah
I know but I wrote him anyway. A few places said they would notify me if they got any in. I also have look outs else where. So it doesn't hurt huh?

A/C
Can't find it anywhere. The door is warped badly looks like one side melted, don't know what happened there just the door is damaged, weird. I may have to fabricate the door otherwise.
Thanks
