Re: More New Sheetmetal Products for Pickups
Thanks fordscript. Not at this time, but I’m open to making any pieces that aren’t currently available. I would need some 40 pickup doors to be able to use for scanning and patterns.

Re: More New Sheetmetal Products for Pickups
Hey Josh - really NICE work! While I don't have a pickup, just wanted to give you an 'Atta Boy' on the quality of your work.

Re: More New Sheetmetal Products for Pickups
Shesh I wish I had some of your parts when I was doing my pickup. Incredible job.. How about running boards, or is that a bit on the extreme side of wishing?

Re: More New Sheetmetal Products for Pickups
Hey Josh....I had asked about ‘37 wiper/windshield hinge covers awhile ago. I guess nobody has come up with a pattern?.......Mark

Mike, I have a friend who is planning to make running boards for these pickups. I’ll have to ask how they’re coming along. I know he had a good original pair to use for patterns. Knowing him, they will be spot on and very nice. I’ll let you know what I find out. I don’t plan to make any unless he decides not to make them. |

Re: More New Sheetmetal Products for Pickups
I would be happy to make these for the 37 pickup guys but without an original for specs there isn’t much I can do. I’ll look again and see if I can find any for sale. I’ll keep you posted.

Re: More New Sheetmetal Products for Pickups
I’m sure I’m not the only one with a rusted out cowl vent channel on my 35/36 pickup. I’m now making these and as far as I know, they will also fit 1933-1934 Passenger cars as well.
Still no luck for you guys that have asked about 1937 wiper covers. |

Re: More New Sheetmetal Products for Pickups
Nice good quality work. Where were you when I was restoring Apatchy? LOL

Re: More New Sheetmetal Products for Pickups
The "holy grail" of pick-up parts would be the '38-'41 rear fenders. Would be a very ambitious project for sure.

Re: More New Sheetmetal Products for Pickups
Well I do want one of those pickups, and I have been asked many times about parts for them. The only way for me to create parts for them is to have one. Anybody have one or has a line on one that needs a good home?

Re: More New Sheetmetal Products for Pickups
I have been asked to make this part many times and have only done so on special order in the past. I finally decided to create the tooling to be able to make these on a regular basis and these should be available on the website soon. For those of you who may not know, this is the lower section of the back of the cab on 35-37 pickups, between the cab corners.

Re: More New Sheetmetal Products for Pickups
Well it’s not sheetmetal but here is the first 35-36 Pickup or Truck floorboard off the cnc. It’s 5/8 A-B Marine grade plywood. I’ll have these available on the website for sale just as soon as I figure out the most cost effective method to ship them.

Re: More New Sheetmetal Products for Pickups
Your floorboard looks great. Nice work. You advertise this will fit 1935 and 1936 pickups and Trucks. Unfortunately the 1935 and 1936 Trucks use a slightly different floorboard. I've attached a sketch of what the Truck version looks like. The primary differences are the number of attaching screws on the rear side and the position and angle of the battery access hole.
