Hey my name is Drew Talbott. I am new to this website forum and i have just recently purchased a 1948 Chevy 1/2 Ton Panel Truck. I am currently looking for a new radiator for that year, rear panel between doors and the wooden floor, etc. I am basically trying to find parts for my truck to further its restoration.
Hey Drew,welcome to the Hamb. There's a sub-forum specially for us AD owners. You can find us here... http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/group.php?groupid=132 There's also a parts wanted section. There's quite a few Panel owners who might be able to help. See ya there!
Thanks man i really appreciate it. i have found places like lmc truck and what not, but havent recieved any catalogs or whatnot from them. So i thank you for helping me.
Try Mar-K in Oklahoma City for the wood kit. I used a U.S. Radiator in my 47 truck and have been real happy. Plan on using another one on my Panel when I finally get time to work on it.
What is the rear panel between the doors you speak of???? As for the floor, does your truck have bed strips or solid floor? If its a solid floor it is just 3/4 marine grade plywood. If it's strips you can you pickup truck stuff. I have a 53' chevy and have learned a lot about these panels. Sent from my iPhone using The H.A.M.B. mobile app
