Hi robbo
Most parts are available from Dennis Carpenters for reproductions, in North Carolina imported by rubber connection in Melbourne...we bought a few bodies and trucks to get parts. We tried to keep as original as possible....we owned an F150 in the 90's for a work vehichel as the two kids could sit in the middle with racing harnesses for seatbelts...once they got bigger we traded on a cross 8 ute for work and holidays....
I got my license in an XA falcon station wagon, with no power steering, and a three on the tree gearbox....
