I dont know if this has been answered (i looked in the search and didnt get anything) my question is i plan on restoring a 1949 ford F-5 and was wondering if the f1-f3 were the same i was told that the f5 had bigger fenders i dont know exactly the difference im new to this and thanks guys

 

the f3 and up are bigger trucks ,,look at your tire size ,,anything over 17.5 is going to have larger everything as you have an F-5 you should be in the elite class here ..what are your plans ?? what shape is it in ?and yah ..you will be welcome her ..

Welcome to FTE!

Bob's link answers your questions. I just wanted to throw out a welcome.

 

Welcome to the madness!
F2 through F6 use the same fenders, so lots of options as you look for parts donor trucks etc.

My F6 fenders were really bad and i ended up buying a set of very nice used fenders from another member here.

Bobs chart is very handy indeed.

 

Sweet thanks bob that chart answered alot of questions, thanks for the welcome jolly i had this when i had my navigator but now i drive a ford fusion and i love this sight has answered some of my questions

 

Could we see some pictures? Here is how.


But I got ta say becoming a supporter is the fastest and easiest way to post pics right from
your whatever pad/cell thing or home computer.
Few of us look in the users Gallery or album as you can see by your recent visitors.

It seems awkward, but whenever you "insert a picture" to one of these threads, the forum is looking for the picture somewhere on the web (which is always available) rather than from somewhere on your hard drive (which isn't always available).

Go to Image hosting, free photo sharing & video sharing at Photobucket and sign up for a free account. Then create an album for your truck. Upload any pics you want to post on FTE to that album. Have this album open on your computer when you want to post pics on FTE.

While you're making a post on FTE, select the pic you want to post from your Photobucket album. When the large version of the pic is open, right mouse click on it and select "View Image Info". The image info will be highlighted and will look something like this:
The best photos and videos | Photobucket

Copy that highlighted info (right click / copy).

When you have the spot in your post where you want the pic to be placed, select the "Insert Image" icon at the top of the post (looks like a mountain) and paste (right click / paste) the image info you copied in the highlighted box (just shows "http://" when it opens).

Your pic will be placed in the post.

Hope that helps.
