1977 Autobody Work Help..
Hey guys,
I am stuck. Cant find a new good box up north of you in canada here. So I am going to rebuild it. Cross canada auto parts has everything I need to rebuild this box but not box corners?
I cant find box corners at all, no where. LMC I think has them lower bed panels but not sure if it does the full corner.
Anyways its rotted out pretty damn good and needs a rebuild for sure.
Thanks For Your Time
Cheers
Chris

The same sheetmetal was used on all 1975/91 Econolines, with one exception.
The only change occured in 1978, when rectangular headlamps replaced round headlamps, the lower grille panel was slightly different than what was used 1975/77.
Ford did not sell the 1973/79 Styleside bed corners by themselves.
The only way they were available was with the quarter panels (bed sides).
The Styleside pickup beds are essentially the same 1973/79.
The left quarter panel was changed in 1977, but this change only occured because Ford began using fuel doors, instead of having the gas caps exposed.
