    Are your fenders rusted out around the headlights, I need a patch panel for that area both sides. Talked to EMS nothing in the works from them. I wonder if 55 and 56 are the same?
    Your Ford is looking good Keep up the good work!

    I wish EMS had been making these when I had to replace my lower panels on the wagon,,it would have saved us a lot of time fabricating them from scratch.

    Nice work on your part. HRP

    If your jambs are solid, then there's no need to cut them out, the way you did yours is the way I typically do mine, unless it's rotted into the jamb, then there's not really a choice. Looks like you're doing good work, keep it up.

    The crossmember was made out of some 10 gauge sheet steel. The worst part was the reverse engineering from a pile of rust!
