Does anyone have any F150 Ford body parts laying around? My friend avoided a guy crossing the street and hit a pole. He took a good hit to the drvers side front of his 98. Needs a air bag, windshield, fender, hood, grill, radiatior, rad support... well you get the idea!

Lemme know if'n ya'll have anything!

I think '98 is the Newer Body Style...

His is the newer style. 97 was the first year I think?

Correct.

Doesn't he have insurance? With an airbag deployment, I'd think there may be more than meets the eye (i.e. frame rail tweaked, suspension geometry, etc.) Just a thought....

He has insurance and it's being fixed at a friends shop so if he can get any parts used they will go on it and cut back on the deductable.

Any hit hard enough over 30MPH will deploy the air bag, it's not an indication of the body being damaged real bad. Either way he wants to fix it and needs the sheetmetal at least.

Sorry, I forgot the other point to mention... He's a cheap bastard...

He even asked me to try and get him color matched parts so he didn't need to get them painted. :chair:



Gotcha! :)

You should charge him for your time and assistance trying to track down parts for him.

Nah, I bank it all up for future abuse and yardwork at my sprawling central West Allis Estate...... He's a real go getter with a weed wacker!
