Today after working on my wife's car (1950 F--d Crestliner) I took it out for test run. Not one mile from home a car pulled out in front of me. I locked up my brakes and swerved trying to avoid a collision. I was successful in that maneuver but ended up in a ditch with right front against an embankment. The other car of course kept going. Bottom line, I am in need of front bumper, right front bumper brace and right front fender. Is there a F--d site like our Chat that has a "Parts wanted" that I can
utilize for these items or who would you suggest I contact. Thanks

Main thing above all is you are ok. I have been there, but not to that extent. My 87 Monte Carlo has damage to the front bumper cover from hitting an animal. Luckily that is covered by the front plate.


I have found that having an old car is a constant project that is never done. I think that is a good thing. Keeps me learning new things. Having two from different eras is just a form of higher education.
