New Boxsides?

Does anyone know if new boxsides for 73-79 fords are avalable
I've looked everywere and can't find any, all I can find are patch panels
I would like a complete side that includes the taillight section
used ones in my area, michigan are nonexistant, so that option is out
This is for my mud truck so the fit does not have to be perfect so tawain parts are fine thanks

Order one, you'll find it very useful.

By the way, welcome to the site.

I got mine through the local auto body supply store. Be sure to compare the thickness of metal. Cheaper ones are thinner metal, which dents and rusts easier.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

From what other users on FTE have stated that LMC sheet metal is cheap and flimsy and not worth the money.

People , there are numerous companies that sell sheet metal, some you can get locally if you live in a large center.
There are good companies and bad companies.
There is quite a bit of sheet metal coming from Asia that is garbage and some that is great.
Do some research about who has what before you buy

Has anyone ever bought bedsides from Blue Oval Truck Parts? Just curious about the quality. I also have been trying to find the best bedsides and have heard questionable things about LMC. Any Opinions?

also looking for quality boxsides. since i want quality parts, i know better than to order from lmc. they may be cheap, but i don't want tinfoil body parts. anyone have experience ordering these from auto krafters or blue oval truck parts? hoping that since they are sponsors one of them will have quality parts.
