Panel parts are somewhat hard to come by, just because fewer panels were made. However, a good part resource for 53-56 Ford trucks is Mid Fifty. Call for a free catalog: 1-800-252-1956.

Start a gallerie of pictures so we can see the baby. It also helps answer questions if we can see an area of need. Click on "User CP" in the blue bar at the top of the forum page and follow the instructions under "Edit Gallery". You can post pics from your computer into your own FTE Gallery.

panel truck help

Joe,
Welcome aboard. I have a 1949 panel truck, it's on the back burner, but I got a set of seats for it right after I got it, which is one of the hardest things to get for a panel, besides rear doors. Good luck and post some pictures...
Jeff

Additionally, one of the more vocal ( and helpful) members of this forum - Axracer - is building a 53-56 panel truck as well, so he will likely be a valuable resource to you.....
