Again, thanks! | | | | Joined: Nov 2000 Posts: 700 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Nov 2000 Posts: 700 | I've searched the forums and read what's there, but was wondering if anyone has any pictures of installation of the foward cab cowl patch panels on the '41 - '46 series? I purchased both the inner and outer for both sides but since there was nothing left of the originals I need some help.

I made all of my panels. I took a lot of pictures. Don't know if they will help but have a look. Good luck.

Thanks for the link - it looks like you've done some fantanstic work there; I hope my turns out as well. The area I'm specifically referring to is displayed on your picture # 83 in your album. In addition to the two diagonal "foot pieces, for a better word) the lower panels behind and just forward of them are pretty much shot. I ordered inner and outer patch panels for the skin but have yet to even locate the description for the two 45 degree "foot rest" looking parts.
Thanks again,

I had some left of mine for a pattern and had a sheet metal shop make mine. I made the rest of the panels for my truck. | | | | | Joined: Apr 2004 Posts: 888 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Apr 2004 Posts: 888 | Ditto on Dad6x.....Have the inner pieces that I copied.

I purchased the panels (same as shown on your item 200030919304 eBay ad) from Jim Carter. I must sheepishly admit that I'm not doing the work myself although I should have put my own skills to work after what I've observed by body guy doing.
Thanks to you and the others for the great feedback. My 1941 in the Stovebolt Gallery My Photo AlbumBut I tried, didn't I? ... At least I did that.

Not sure what they thought I purchased patch panels for. Can you tell me a name for the left and right diagonal (gussets)pieces that run from the toe board to floor board? I see them in the parts and maintenance books but no one seems to offer them for sale. I would have asked my body guy to have his welder to fab them but the welder has been fired.
