Please can someone give me some advice on finding interior panels and parts for a 1983 Ford F-100. I've already reupholstered the seat, but need interior door panels and the panel that goes behind the seat on the interior of the cab. I've gotten a few things from LMC
Trucks but their inventory for the F100 is limited.
 
Thanks,
Tim

That's going to be tough because the truck is really too new for any aftermarket interior parts. There aren't many folks restoring this type.
 
Best thing I could suggest is to scour Hemmings Motor News (www.hemmings.com) and hope to score either really good salvage panels or some NOS.

Have you checked with junkyards/recyclers? There should be a pretty good supply of '83s around that died because of rust/engine/tranny/crash problems, but with decent interior left over.
