Mid fifty has a ad for them in there catalog but no picture or price. I'm sure other vendors have them I just happen to have there catalog handy.
I did my own and of coarse the first trip out a stone jumped up and hit right in the area where there is some filler, a little less now. Good thing mine's a 25 footer.
Next go around I probably will replace the pan with one like your looking for

Nice stuff. My dad used their fenders and running boards on his '30 Ford coupe. We were both VERY impressed with the quality.

Ron,
Do you have the original valance? Have you considered just fillling the cut-outs with steel? I would guess it would even be cheaper to pay a bodyman to fill them than buying another one. Just another approach.
