Need a bunch of body parts, where to get?

[roundhouse]

Alright, we dove in and are gonna be repairing the rust, I need front and rear door posts, rockers, kick panels, floor panels etc.

who has the best quality? prices? shipping? etc
Im in Atlanta Georgia for the shipping.

seems like Toms has the largest selection,, some of the places have some stuff but not everything I need.

You may have to pick and choose from some of the vendors unfortunately.

I got panels and parts from both Tom's and Wild Horses. Some of Tom's body parts are small enough to qualify for their free shipping. But WH had a couple of parts that Tom's didn't have or didn't seem as good.

Yeah I’ve not found one vendor that has every part

I’m Probabaly not going to replace any of the outer body panels

They are all dented etc but gives it character .

But the rust in the rockers and door posts is so bad the body is sagging .
So that’s gotta be fixed .

At this point I think it's a total crap shoot. Someone will post up that they got good stuff from vendor "X", next person gets parts from vendor " X" and they are terrible. I believe most, if not all are coming from the cheapest overseas supplier possible.

Since you are in the east, check out North East Classic Ford Parts. They're web site isn't the best, so I usually just call them. They have everything though, and I mean everything, new and used.

never heard of them, I will check em out.

only vendor Ive seen that might have everything is Dennis Carpenter .

its just easier to order everything from one place, but it might not be possible.

CJ Pony Parts and Broncograveyard. Fit is a crapshoot anyplace. I’ve had good luck with fit, price, and shipping from each of them.

NPD and Dennis Carpenter are both in Charlotte, NC and have reps for well fitting parts but are generally more expensive.

From Atlanta I'd be looking at Dennis Carpenter. They're in Concord so it wouldn't be a terrible drive to go pick everything up.

Biggest issue, I don't think they're open on weekends anymore.

Seems like most of the body parts you order from a lot of these vendors come In Dennis Carpenter packaging. I used their cowling , doors, hood and tailgate from them and all fit right. Non- body parts, I had great luck with all the top tier vendors, maybe with the exception of CJ Pony parts. But they allowed me to return what wasn’t correct, since the product description was inaccurate.

Placed a $990 order at Dennis carpenter

Ordered about $700 from wild horses

Oddly carpenter didn’t have the right and left floor board available .

Now I just gotta get the old stuff cut out and the 25 year old hurculiner removed .

Oh and I have a roller cam efi 351W from a 96 E-250 van and a Nv3550 from a wrangler to go in too .

The current 1991 efi 302 that’s been in it since 1999 is worn slap out and the Nv3550 that’s in it won’t stay in first gear .

So might be a while before the broncosaurus rides again
