SoCal Pickups???

I used to get parts from So Cal Pickups on Manchester Ave in Buena Park. I can't find internet links of references anywhere. Are they still in business?

Specifically, I am looking for a set of wide rear fenders for my son's '61 F100. So Cal used to sell them, but haven't seen any in Dennis Carpenter's catalog or anywhere else.

Any help would be great.

Welcome aboard, Try Poli-Form, I believe they had F100 stuff, if that doesn't work Fairlane Industries, I believe they are in Michigan. If you can't find them I have an address around here somewhere

They are still around, they just moved about 2 years ago from Buena Park to Orange County. I don't have the address and I don't believe they have a website. They sell the steel fenders which is nice. I have the steel 1.5" fenders on mine from them. Check with information for a phone number.

Buena Park is in Orange County so they can't move from one to the other.
You must mean they moved to the City of Orange from Buena park inside of Orange County.

There was some discussion a while back that they may have moved to Arizona. I was never to their California shop, but you can check this link to see if it is the same place.

Here's the current address:
SoCal PICKUPS, INC.
118 E. Orangethorpe Ave.
Anaheim, Ca. 92801
1-800-SoCal-49 (U.S. and Canada)
714-871-8333 (Local & International)

Earl- The one your talking about is So Cal Speed, they deal mostly with Pre-50's vintage parts. They carry a lot of the roadster/ ratrod type parts. They also have a shop in Azusa, CA. They're different from these guys.

Thumbs up

Thanks FORd the info. I was stationed in Orange Co. in the '80's and bought a bunch of stuff for my '64, and My bud had their catalog when we built his '56 and '55.
I live in Oregon now and don't get to SoCal but maybe 2x in the last 10 yrs. I was hoping they still have a catalog and really looking for a web page.

BTW....I'm parting out a '68....Georgia truck that moved to Oregon. Lotsa rust but the glass, bumpers, interior, frame and running gear are nearly perfect. I was gonna steal the 9" for the boy's '61 but he wants to stay with the Dana44.
Also have a fresh 8.8 setup for my Dad's '66 Mustang. He paid $400 for it but never installed it. It's complete drum to drum. Anybody looking for something like this please reply....
