I'm getting started repairing the cab on my 54 five window. Will be needing several panels to repair rust and was wondering if any certain brand is better than others. Classic Parts has a free shipping offer that made them pretty good price but I don't know what brand they sell. Any opinions would be appreciated.

Most of the companies get their parts from the same supplier. That said, we have gotten most of our parts from Classic Parts and have been real happy with them. I will use them again when i find another 54.

Classic has been fine, used their cab corners and worked well. Plug welded in with flux core mig. Good folks as far as panel fitment in relation to surround original sheet metal too. Hope this helps ya! Good luck and have fun.
