1956! And i thought my 1988 class B was old! How does one find repair parts for such an old vehicle?

While I can't believe there are too many left, there might be a few here and there. I see all kinds of 40's-50's-60's trucks in and near farm fields here in Alabama and Georgia ( apparently it's a" go straight to hell " sin to remove these from ones property) so that may be a parts source. I'm sure other parts were swapped out for newer ones, and some of the hardest to find are probably modified or fabricated from scratch.
