So-Cal / AZ junkyard a dry older generation E-Series

[Fujisan USA]

My 90 E350 RB has some rust spots in the drip rails and parts need to be cut and replaced. Anybody seen a '75-'91 era E series RB lately with rust free drip rails in any junkyards within a day or so drive of LA? Mine has developed some problem areas and I've got a shop willing to do the work but I can't find a clean donor van. Thanks for any ideas guys.

I found these guys very helpful when locating a discontinued interior trim piece. https://findafordpart.com/

Im not sure if it's the same everywhere but around here none of the u pick yards will let you "cut" any part off. If you go into the yard and bring back a piece of body you cut off they won't sell it to you.

Just a heads up it may be worth a phone call before venturing out

I've cut quarter panels off a car, and rockers before here, but that was 15+ years ago, so things may have changed.

There are still pick-a-parts here in the Phoenix area that have that gen of van in them that you could cut pieces from. I was out junking last weekend and saw a few. The U-Pull-It in Prescott Valley, AZ, almost certainly has some too. They have an inventory online that you can check.

Pic a part in North Vegas has one right now! I pulled the sofa bed out of it last week. They allow you to cut it up also.
