The only parts available are the ones that cross over to the pickup trucks...there just isn't enough demand to make them.

The floor mat on the other hand will be very hard to find... What model is your truck? Engine and Trans??? Have any pictures to share? I have two fire engines...one done and one in the works...my LCF gets done next if I live long enough!

Even if you don't see them in their catalog, they still may have something. I sent a piece of something I was trying to find and they had a match for that too. | | | | | Joined: Jul 2014 Posts: 14 New Guy | | New Guy Joined: Jul 2014 Posts: 14 | thanks bill.i will check that out.i was kinda thinking of buying one side or the other and seeing if they will work i figure it should be the same from the wheelwell notch up and around the top back and bottom to the bottom of the wheelwell notch.also another thing i am looking for is the door mirror.not the all one piece mount and shaft but the shaft that bolts thru the double mount on the door.i see lots of the big trucks with these brackets but no mirror. | | | | | Joined: Mar 2004 Posts: 6,214 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Mar 2004 Posts: 6,214 | The big West Coast mirrors are available new from your local NAPA or big truck parts house. Most new sets have adjustable arms. Amazon and eBay also have lots to choose from... Click on Mike's Garage below my signature and see my '56 8400 tow truck and '56 LCF...they both have different types of mirrors that I believe are original to each truck. The Fire Engine has original single arm mirrors. Hope this helps, Mike B | | | | | Joined: Jul 2014 Posts: 14 New Guy | | New Guy Joined: Jul 2014 Posts: 14 | looking for the ones like on the 57 fire truck.the single arm mirrors. | | | | | Joined: Mar 2004 Posts: 6,214 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Mar 2004 Posts: 6,214 | Put an ad in the Parts Wanted Section and see what turns up...
