    I'm in the process of getting my body ready to mate to new subframe assembly. I need to replace or patch up a few things 1st My questions are. What are the called and where can I find them. I have Macs , Snyders , and looked through Howells online. I don't see pics of them and simply haven't been able to figure out what the part is called or the part #s are. The ( door post ) bottoms are rotted bad. Pass side may be salvageable. But drivers side is gone . Do they make a lower patch for this ? The other is tense triangle gussets at the bottom of the doorpost that are also pretty bad. Yes I could patch em up to get buy. But much rather would replace with good ones or new ones. Here is a couple pics. Oh and also these front lower mounts that are cracked , what are they called and where to get them ? Thanks in advance. Chris

    I don't know if anybody makes new ones-have you tried Howell's/Brookville? You might also try:
    Bill's Model Acres Ford Farm
    3355 8th Street Dr,Watsontown, PA 17777 (570) 538-3200

    He's got an awful lot of Model A original stuff and likely knows what you need. Good guy.
     
  3. Quite sure your going to have to make those pieces.

    Might be worth a call to Bert's in Denver. I know they sell a lot of used stuff.
