Hi, I happened across this website and thought it was pretty nice so I bookmarked it. I have never dealt with them, but I think they might have older cab corners listed: http://www.northernclassictrucks.com/ I hope this helps you.

Hi, I'm still here I received my catalogs in the mail over the holidays and just finished looking thru them not a cab corner to be found looks like I'm going to have to build them myself. Did this once before on an old chevy when you do sheet metal work for a living anything is possible I guess it's just a whole lot easier to buy them premade.thanks again for the help.
John
