Body Replacement

I'm pretty sure I already know the answer to this question, but I'll ask anyways. I have a 65' F-250 4x4, and I was wondering if I could buy a 65-66 f-100 and swap the front clip, and the bed, on to my truck?

F-250 fenders have a larger wheel opening. Not sure that will actually matter for fit though.

Not all F250's had large opening fenders. Usually only the ones with heavier axles or 4WD

Krosati's Right,

Most F350s had bigger wheel openings if they were dually, and so did school bus cab & chassis, and F400 F500 & F600 because they ran 9.00& 10.00 x 20 wheels. They bolt into the F100 & up clip (core suppt & all that).

FWIW. . .F400 - F600 and H400 - H600 that came with saddle tanks have a neat, rubber, plug blocking off hole where F100 - F350 "in cab" Fuel tank filler neck went through the cab. FBp
