55 F600
I have an extra 56 F100 frame that has a volare suspension. I also have a 55 F600 that i'm doing nothing with. So I decided to use the F600 cab on the F100 frame. anyone ever do this? I know I will need F100 fenders. Anything else ill need to watch out for?

You will be able to use all the front sheet metal except the outer fenders. Looks like you've just added a F100 to your fleet

Fenders and running boards (as well as the brackets for them), thats all I can think of that will need to be different. Sounds like fun

yep, I think I have someone interested in the fenders, they are nice. I forgot about the running boards. I have the brackets, i'll just need fenders and running boards.
