60-63 Doors
This is not a want to buy post. I just would like to know why the 60-63 doors are not reproduced. The previous and later truck doors are availiable why are these singled out?

Re: 60-63 Doors
Remember it has not been that long since the 64-66 doors came out.

Re: 60-63 Doors
i would say because 456 trucks share so many interchangable parts such as grille, doors, etc that they just went all out on those models first.

Re: 60-63 Doors
It is called "supply side" economics...low demand = no supply! Everyone on this site would love to see them reproduced, however, we are few, compared to the demand and popularity for the other years. Also, the 4-5-6 reproduction door shells do not hang properly and for nearly $500.00 + tax + shipping, it is not worth it, when there are good, used, OEM door shells available for 1/2 the money or less.
