Cab help, 51 F-1

Does anyone on here in Missouri or close by have a junk F1 cab with a decent back that they're willing to part with at a reasonable price? I need to graft the back skin off a good cab. Any leads appreciated.

Thanks,
Scott

Maybe.
I have a parts cab 49-50 F1. Is that the same cab as the 51?

Let me see if I can determine if the cabs match up.
Mine has the vertical ribs like yours, but let me check specs.

St. Elizabeth area.

The cabs are basically the same, except the rear window is bigger in the 51.

I purchased the parts truck for the bed and plan on using anything else of value (naturally).
The cab is in good shape.
I had not planned on using the rear sheet metel. I did want to cut out the cab corners and use them as patches on my 48.

I don't have a clean picture of the cab, but the truck is in my gallery (what you can see of it).

I am about an hour from you if you are interested in a closer look.

Many thanks to Oscarxyz, the back sheet metal has been acquired and will hopefully be in place by this next weekend.

Thanks again!

Scott
