Hi Scott

Good to hear feedback on parts sources, see you have used some of the same ones I've have. Always wonder which of these US sources can and will actually ship out of the US so many don't.

One more comment that I would add about a couple of these that I have used is if you don't find the part your looking for don't right them off as a source. I've fount that the ones that are actually dealing in NOS have a constantly changing stock. So if first you don't succeed check back later, I've had parts searches that have gone on for years before I actually found the part I needed.

Cheers Phil

Is it normal to find wood in the rear frame of the cab deck?

Only the rifle butt holders, and locating lugs for the side curtains on some Australian Ford cab 13s.

I found rotten hard wood strips under there where the cab mounts to frame at the back. The bolts passed through the wood.
