Will fenders and doors from a 56 F-600 fit a F-100 ?

What parts are interchangeable between a 56 F100 and 56 F600 ?

I have a chance to get a 56 F-600 for $500 and the Doors / Fenders / Hood / Glass / etc... are in excedllent condition.

My question is if the (CAB) or Doors, Hood, and Fenders will fit my 56 F-100.

Thanks for any help ...

No way, they won't fit. Now where did you say that F-600 in good shape was located?

Just joshin'. I'm pretty sure the cab and doors will be the same. Maybe a different hump or two in the floorboard or firewall, but I doubt it. All the key measurements should be the same. Not sure about the fenders, but for 500 bucks, what the hell.

Fenders are different to clear the bigger tires, all else except model trim is identical.
The dash will probably have a bunch of extra holes for pto, tach, vacuum gauge or whatever the F600 required.

The front fenders will bolt on, however the opening for the tires is 4 inches larger on the f600. The front bumper is different as the f600 frame rails are taller. Also the running boards look like the f100 stake bed style , but ar about 1-2 inches deeper. I think if you count the ribs on a f100 stake bed running board there are three ribs and the f600 has four ribs. The f600 also has a different steeing box and a 2 inch larger steering wheel, but they will work in a f100. If it has a y block the oil filter has an adapter to clear the box.

The hood is the same as the f100 thru f800, as is the cab, doors, inner fenders, grill, its all the same.
