on the Internet for over 30 years! and not clogged down with Ads! Again, thanks! | | | | Joined: Mar 2010 Posts: 207 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Mar 2010 Posts: 207 | Does anyone know if someone makes a floor pan patch for a '65 C10 that would replace the area where the floor high beam headlight switch is? I haven't had much luck finding one myself.
Thanks,

Sure wish it would be that simple. Can't find the toe board anywhere. Wouldn't be a problem except for the foot operated headlight dimmer is indented there from the factory.

I am totally convinced that they do not reproduce that section for the '65 trucks. I can find the front floorboard everywhere but not the toe board. It is the piece just ahead of the front toe board where the dimmer is located.
I do have someone sending me an original from a cab.

If not then your probably correct and its not made. Next option is to get the sheet steel and make it your self, or find a good sheet metal body guy to make it. http://www.brotherstrucks.com/prodinfo.asp?number=FRP5900%2DT Looks like the other guy got it with the brothers site. Is this the panel?

The toe board is above that. I took a couple of pictures of it here: http://s1094.photobucket.com/albums/i442/nesto426/Floorboard/Thanks again guys.
