  Steve, put an ad on Fordbarn and also place an ad on this site. You are correct, they are not reproduced. Also check some of the vendors who advertise on this site.The Early Ford Store in San Dimas, Ca. has lots of NOS and good used parts. Also try All Ford Parts in Campbell, Ca. They also have a lot of good used parts.

  Hang in there, Steve. If you're not opposed to repro parts, I talked with Bob Drake at the National meet and there might be one coming in the near future. In the mean time, if you come across an extra, keep me in mind. Good luck with the truck.

  The sheet metal surrounding the radiator is designed to direct air to enhance cooling. This is why many models have seals around the edge to improve the use. There are lots of repros out there for 33-34 and 36, I haven't seen others. Many were lost over the years when the shade tree mechanics tossed them away.
