51 F1 project

Hey guys I'm new to all this,I have a 51 F1 I'm putting on a 77 F350 frame, I'm missing the interior regulator inspection covers on both doors was wondering if anybody might know where I can find some. Soon as I get some decent pics I will try to put them on.

Good luck with the frame swap. Many start, but very few finish.

I may have a set of the door inspection cover plates.

I am by Cincinnati which could be a quick trip or a long one depending on where you are at in Cincinnati. If you are interested you can email me at goliath2002@yahoo.com

Hey Coach,

Wecome to the forum! Keep us posted with pics.

The frame swap is a topic that has been discussed many times. It is a heck of a lot easier to put your F350 running gear (well...engine and trans anyway) on the F1 chassis...you'd have to shorten the F350 chassis a few inches, and address width...both frame width, and the width of the axles.

On the flip side, you'd have a heavy duty hauler.

Dan
