Is this what you are looking for? I haven’t used the PM feature before, but if this is what you need, PM me and I’ll try to figure it out.

Nice looking truck!

I got all 4 of mine from Eaton Detroit Spring, inc. I am very pleased with how they look, and how they fit.

The 48 and 49 would have had stainless grill bars. To my knowledge no one is reproducing them. They come up for sale on eBay from time to time. The 50 models just had painted metal grill bars as standard but they would fit the 48 & 49 as well.

It’s been a while since I installed mine, but is that where the screw goes that holds the vent window frame in place?

The seal is not in the cable. It is in the transmission where the cable screws on. It isn’t hard to replace. If that seal is bad you will leak fluid even with a new cable.

Beautiful truck! Congratulations!

Yes, the seals go on the bottom side of the floor. They are thin, but at least on my truck they do keep the pedals from banging into the floor board.

I would be interested!

In Don Bunn’s reference guide book, on page 101, in the bottom left of the bottom picture you can see the small part that I believe he is referring to. When they moved the bottom door seal from the door to the cab they apparently put these small seals on the door edges. My B2B has the holes for them but I could never find anyone that reproduced them, nor did I ever see any that were in good enough shape to even see exactly what they looked like.

To my knowledge no one is producing those parts. If your originals are good enough one of the companies such as Steele Rubber may copy them and start producing them if they think there is enough demand for them.

When I disassembled my B2B high side bed there were traces of blue paint between the lip and the bed sides where the front of the bed was bolted to the sides. So it appears that at least on mine it was painted before it was assembled. I assumed the floor was still black but I’m not sure as most of the wood had rotted away. The side strips were spot welded on.

You have a beautiful truck!

Thanks for the video. I enjoyed watching it. That’s a neat little machine!

Wow, beautiful truck! Nice find.
