AFAIK cutting down a standard bedside panel or use patch panels is the only way to go.

National Part's Depot has them listed in the 2004 catalog as follows: OEM Quarter Panel Assy (says: "these original Ford quarters are in limited supply. Once they're gone, they're gone.) 73-79 RH 6 3/4' bed, (part # F27840-5) Cost, $404.48, 73-79 LH 6 3/4' bed w/single fuel opening, (part # F27841-5) Cost, $449.95. My understanding is that once Ford obsoleted these part's in 1999-2000 NPD bought the remaining supply (around 100 of each side) from them. I bought one (RT) from them in 2000 for my old box due to a piece of semi truck tire retread taking it out on the highway, at that time I paid $600 for it. (well, actualy AAA did). They also have reproduction 6 3/4' bed sides listed in there as follows: Full Face Reproduction Quarter Panel Assy 73-79 RH 6 3/4' bed, (part # F27840-5R) Cost, Says "CALL", 73-79 LH 6 3/4' bed w/single fuel opening, (part # 27841-5R) Cost, says "CALL". They have a web site so you can go there and check it out or get the phone # to call them. Let us know what you find out if you do call or investigate this further. -Ed
