1960 F100 4x4

I'm new to the site and to vintage trucks. I've purchased a
1960 F100 4x4 that is in need of care. I'm working on the front suspension and I'm having a difficult time locating the proper
lower bracket that the front leaf spring U bolts pass thru and bolt up to. I'm also looking for fender sheet metal (full fenders) door lowers, lower rear styleside fenders....
Any help is welcome....
I live in the Cleveland Ohio area and look forward to restoring this
beautiful beast!

Hey, welcome! A few other new members have joined us recently. Take a look at the threads from the past week or so to get an idea of how to get oriented and what resources FTE and this forum have.

You've got a truck year that can be hard to find parts for. Kenny (our moderator) and a number of the other regulars have trucks from the 1957-1960 series as well. If anybody can help you out, they can.

Thanks for the info Earl and 4speed.

I live on the west side of Cleveland. You have a very nice '60 F-100 4speed. Do you know of any up coming shows in our area?

I'm looking forward to getting involved in the classic truck scene.

4Speed, I've found that there is a time requirement to email folks.
I'd like to go to the Summit show. I'll call Summit racing and get some show info. I'm sure we will run into each other!
Not many
'60's F100's around.
