1978 F250 Supercab Body Swap with 79 4x4 F350 Supercab Possible?
Hey all ~ I've got a 1979 4x4 F350 Lariat Camper Special Supercab that has gotten cancered in a bad way in the cab area, both in the roof, pillars, below the the rear windows and part of the driver's side floor. I'm not a bodyman, but I don't think there is much saving the cab. I'd like to swap the cab area with a 78 F250 supercab, also a Camper Special but not a 4x4 (obviously). I've had a couple of guys tell me that they think the 4x4 on the 79 may cause some issues with the 78 going on but I have no idea. Can anyone tell me if there would be a big prob. doing this or what kind of problems would come up? Thanks much!

I don't think the F350 frame is narrower but even if it was all he would have to do is drill new mounting holes.
