D Series parts wanted was created by Nucky
Morning all..

Looking for a right hand door to suit a Ford D1211 as well as both left and right front quarter panels (the ones that screw and bolt on behind the headlights and wrap around to the lower front side of the doors). This 1981 model has the square headlights.
Current ones are rusted so any rust-free ones would be suitable.
Also, any of the grille fittings for the front in good order.
All preferably in southern WA!
:) :) :)

OK,

Have got the doors sorted (I think) but still on the lookout for the front grille insert as well as the headlight surrounds (both sort of plasticky bits). Any pointers welcome.
Also, are D Series spares still readily available? I have to replace the pitman arm on the rh steering gear. Any ideas on who in WA might stock them would be welcome.

Help!!
Recent storms have led to a tree branch smashing the left hand front indicator lens on my D1211 (square headlights).
Anyone know where I can get a lens cover? (She is due over the pits next week and won't pass without it!)
Lens cover for either side front will do as they are interchangeable on the D1211.
Cheers,
Nuck :-[

Sorry Swishy but the lens was totalled and all bits not findable!
Looks like this (although this is RHS they are the same):

Any ideas?
BTW, the beer was a great idea :D

Thanks for the postings. Am still chasing one up (needs repair) from Wilsons in Albany.
Had a look around and it appears that the closest replacement (with some cutting etc.) might be from a pre-1989 Ford Trader. They had the same wrap-around lens but with a clear top section for the parking light. Perhaps this could be cut off and the amber section used on my D1211?

Nucky, Beenliegh Truck Wreckers in Brisbane are wrecking a D1414 with those lenses, weather you can talk them into sending over a lens or not I do not know.
