where did you get your interior panels? they are some of the nicest i have seen? thank you, kevin

this is my express truck. perhaps the welt will dull up in the sun, just do not care for vinyl type products. hope all is well. kevin

did this truck have the fender welt from the factory? not crazy about the looks of the shiny vinyl, yet do not want squeaks. also, the fender support braket.... is it bolted through 2x4 bottom sill or lag bolted into the wood. thank you in advance, kevin

there is a great man in palmer,MA. if you call 1-413-283-7620 you will get nelson from NB PEASE and CO. lots of n.o.s parts. he sends out UPS. great man, getting older and does not like to be rushed but has a vast collection of incredible things. i have seen someone come in looking for a speedometer...

very helpful info. i appreciate your thoughts and brain. hope all is well. kevin

hey neil, i went and studied my old bed sides, rusty but holes still evident barely. i now see what you meant. the bottom hole in bed side is flared or angled to take the head of the flat headed bolt. on the other side is a larger hump to make the flare or beveled hole. this is why the holes in the ...

thank you neil, kim van order and i thought it was a flat headed bolt on top and the big hole on bottom for an extension and socket to fit in. i guess i could put the crossmembers together with wood sills and then set it on the 2inch flange. i would have no reason to drill a hole in the steel flange...

thank you neil. question, the flat slot head of the bolt is up and the lock washer and nut are on bottom? i wonder why not just recess the nut and washer in the bottom of the sill via the big hole in cross member tab? it could then sit as a unit on the bed side flange. if there is a hole in bed side...

thank you neal for this info. do you have a cross section anywhere in your collection. are you saying that the side panel flange has the same size hole as the tab on bottom of cross member? thanks in advance, kevin

i think you are right. this bolt will only lock in the top tab and the bottom will be recessed to sit on the bed sides. thank you for your ideas. kevin

question? the steel cross members that the bed wood sits on. top tab has two holes, one small for screw into sill and one large for slotted bolt. why is the bottom hole on tab of cross member so large in diameter compared to the top hole??? how does this come together? anyone have a photos or diagram?

it needs work on the bottom below crank hole. i think you could find better. sorry...

hey kevin here, i purchased long splash aprons from rootlieb. i had them made one gauge heavier than what they currently are making, 400 dollars include shipping to ct. they could not have fit better, matched up perfect to originals except all the holes, looked like swiss cheese. hope this helps if ...
