Parts?

Got a '57 F100.

Any good places to get parts? Any places like Year One, but for trucks?

You might try Dennis Carpenter, LMC, or Sacramento Vintage.

I have been restoring my 49 f1 and I have delt with dennis carpenter and do not recomend them. Go with NPD(national parts depot), LMC, or Hot Rods truck parts. Thoes are the ones I deal with and have never had a complaint with any of them.

I've been working on my '57 for a while and the best parts places I've dealt with have been NPD and especially Sacramento Vintage Ford. I do have to agree with '49 Ford F-1 about Dennis Carpenter though

Every time I deal with Carpenter, they all act like they smoked a little too much dope at lunch or something. They're all really nice but just not making me feel real confident. LMC is having some major problems with their applications labels on certain parts. So even though they say it will fit a 1952 for example, it may not.

I have nothing but praise for C&G, I deal with them almost exclusively (mainly because they are here in town). And I have nothing but good things to say about them. MACS has always been good to deal with too.
