Would you guys mind listing sorces for some stuff?

I have an AutoKrafters catalog someplace
Any other vendors for weatherstripping, and f100 specific stuff?

Who sources:
brake upgrades
Sheetmetal
trim
fuel tank stuff
hotrodding stuff (engine swap things like mounts etc)

How big a deal is kingpin replacement?

...aaannd the holy grail, the equivalent of a perfect Torino dashpad or shaker, a tailgate? :lol:

Any patch pieces for tailgates?
Who here has fixed em?

Thanks gents. I am sorry for being lazy on the searches. I'm just geeked to get into a new type of vehicle.
Someday I'll get another slick :(

that should keep you going for a bit.

Dennis Carpenters is the Shizz-Nit!! They are the best. Don't buy your rubber any place else (unless it has DCs LOgo on it)

Carolina Classics is the next best one in line.

Never had good luck with LMC, sort of cheep.

You can find your disc brake upgrade here. http://www.classicperform.com/4856fordtrk.htm I ordered the bracket only kit Monday, takes "7 to 10" buisness days, $95. They also have full kits if you don't want to hunt down your own parts. Look in the "How To" section here for a sway bar add on. Our fearless leader "Foodstick" set his Uni on a Crown Vic cop car frame and it's very cool too. "El Polacko" another member here makes Dakota suspension swap crossmembers for our trucks also. The only limit is your wallet!
