Will the F-2 grill fit an F-1?

Thanks

Thank you.
What about the front fenders, I know they are different than the F-1 but will they fit up to the F-8?

Fenders of an F-2 & up have a larger wheel opening & the lower fender extensions are shorter where they meet the fender on the curved edge .

F1 fenders. F2-F6 fenders. F7-F8-COE fenders.

51 and 52 fenders are the same with the exception of the inner fenders.

51 and 52 grilles are the same in appearance. The only difference is the way the grille teeth were attached. In 51, the teeth were spot welded to the grille bar, while in 52 they were bolted.

What's wrong with your fenders and grille?

Ilya,
Nothing is wrong with mine, I was curious if they would fit the fire engine just in case of the event of a little unforeseen accident.
Besides, I could possibly sell them on the black market for a little profit!
Lol

if you want to make your grille look different get an extra left and right pair of grille teeth and ad them to your grille,
