I know LMC is just one supplier for CUCV body parts, but after buying my first M1009 the other day, I started to search for other suppliers and would like to share what I found. Here are the links:

RAYBUCK AUTO PARTS:
http://www.raybuck.com/

SURPLUS SUPPLY:
http://www.surplussupplyco.com/

MILL SUPPLY, INC.
http://www.rustrepair.com/

BTW, This the M1009 I scored the other day at Lakehurst. I thought picking up my deuce gave my stomach happy butterflies, this is worse. I can't sleep!!!!!

I've bought several Goodmark panels from just north of Atlanta. Good fit and very reasonable.

Has anyone used parts from Certifit ? CertiFit Auto Body Parts - Home They seem dirt cheap and I could pick them up. But sometimes cheap=junk.
I've got their 83-84 Chevy grill on Big Ugly. For the price it's great. Not as nice as GM's or even one of the $60 aftermarket grills but it's perfectly workable, fits, and looks correct.

I have heard their sheetmetal is on the thin side but don't use me as a bible. I had a friend in NJ ship me this grill as there's no CertiFit's in Michigan.

I have been looking for parts for my fire company's M1028. I ordered 2 cab corners from JC Whitney and even though they were the same part # just one left and one right. They were both from two different manufactures. The one from TABCO, which had "MADE IN USA" on it felt light, it was unpainted, and looked like a cheap stamping with wavy inside edges. The one made in Taiwan was from KeyParts Inc. It felt heavier, was painted and looked like a better stamping with a straight front edge. I still have to weld them in. I also have to find a right front inner fender well. Key lists their office in NJ. Most places I have found charge 2x what the price of the part is to ship it.
