Here is where I am with my red flat bed....thanks to the very hard work from a fellow FTE member "earthquake68".
Wow that is gorgeous. I think plans are to leave paint how it is just some sanding and clear coat. In the end this will end up being one of my sons' trucks when they are old enough to drive. Finding parts has been hard for me. Any ideas?

Doors, front driver fender, wiper arm, the lens and housing for the turn signals and marker lights, door panels, dash pad, wheels, tires, exhaust headers. There's more but I forgot for the moment.

Door panels like plain all red or all black or something fancy? And of course red or black dash pad? A no cracked OEM black one is hard to find.

But a tan one and dye it black is very easily acquired, because I happen to have one on the shelf.

Fenders, I have 3 sets. Doors 3 sets, front clip inner 2.

I have a bucket of side marker lights and a stack of tail lights.

Wheels, what style? Aluminum? I am thin on 1/2 ton rims. Wiper arm...my parts truck.

How much for a set of doors, I need red door panels and dash pad cover. How much for the wiper arm and lights too?

Wheels looking for some standard wheels that came on the truck.

Welcome to the Mo chapter, I have pretty much all those parts or can get them from my local JY. I live just outside Bolivar Mo...google it, you have a couple of fairly close FTE members with all those parts. Google Sparta also...earthquake68 has parts also.

Get a real good shopping list together and lets make a plan to get you some parts some weekend. Or even a week night is fine by me, since Bolivar is so close.

I actually live north of Fair Play and just outside of Dunnegan, so google that and lets get you some parts for your rig.
