Replacement panels
Looked at all that is available, EMS, Direct Sheetmetal, Bitchin... you name it, I checked 'em out.
Decided on Northern Classic Trucks for my replacement floorpans/Trans cover, front cab corners & front cab mount.
Could Not Be Happier with the quality, workmanship and fitment. $$ well spent.
One side down, one to go.

Northern Classic Trucks - Reproduction parts for your antique Ford truck .
Don't know about the fender parts, didn't need them myself.
Think I'm going to get my bed from them as well in a few months.

Hey kid, looks good! If you put your truck year in a signature line this lazy old guy woud’t have to look it up….1952! …….‘cause I wanted to ask you a question and not much sense if it’s the wrong year, right?
Did any of those manufactures offer a raised trans cover for a bigger/larger transmission? Thanks.

Glad you posted, many times I've recommended Northern Classics when some one has posted requests for sheet metal sources. I've heard they're pretty good but it's nice to see their parts in an application.

I grew up on stick welders but I absolutely love my Mig.
Really Wish I had a plasma cutter too.... Ditto again, practice makes perfect really applies. Google for info on how to weld, plenty of free/good info out there and then just practice.
