Yes, they only list one part number in the Ford Parts catalog, B7C 18813-A. Fits 57-60 F-N-T 100 thru 1100 series trucks.

Darkman, that's because I won it

The guy who has been selling them is cjfordman. All of his auctions just ended last night, so some new items should show up soon.

Lol I had no idea you were bidding on it too. None of the names looked familiar in the bidding history. I'll let you know how it fits as soon as Kenny finds his template that tapes to the cowl so I can drill the hole

We are fighting each other!!!!!!!!!!!

The first one he posted sold cheap but they have been getting higher and higher. I haven't even bid the last three times. It is bad that we all want the same thing and are paying more than we should.

Kenny,

I didn't receive the e-mail. Try sending it again to XXXXXXXXXX. If it's an actual size copy of the template, and it's not too much trouble, can I have you send if to me snail mail that way I am 100% sure it's the right size and my computer didn't resize it?

Funny all this radio talk came up. I just put a radio in mine, but have no speakers yet or an antenna. My truck had the radio delete - no I did NOT cut the dash!

Anyone got some 6 1/2" 3ways they need to part with? 4Speed, where's your speakers? Or are you using just the original single speaker on the radio?

I have a picture of a dash that had the radio. The picture is with everything out. It shows the placement of the speaker and the factory holes. It is too large to post and I cant scale it down. My scanner program is down right now or I could save it a lower resolution. I can email it if any one would like. Just e-mail me and I'll reply back. My e-mail is in my profile.

Delete plate? Mine doesn't have a delete plate installed. In fact, I don't think that was an option. It was either a hole for the radio or not, and mine did not come with a radio from the factory.

Meant to ask "Sixoh".
And yes they did come w/ a Delete Plate. I saw a few while growing up. Father had dealings w/ quite a few dealerships, so I got to see all the new stuff as it was made available.
