52 front end

I was wondering if you could install a 1948-50 front end on a 1952 . THE REAR FENDERS AND BED ARE A 52 . I found a nice 48-50 front end complete at a reasonable price

Yes, the front clips will interchange on any frame/cab, 48-52. Be advised that all of the parts must be used together within the year groups. None of the front end sheet metal, including hoods and inner fenders, will interchange. Although they may look similar, everything is different.

Take a little extra time and effort to get the correct clip. You and your admirers will be happy you did in the long run.

Why the duplicate question? https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/1...2-f1-info.html

You only have to ask once. And you will get more responses with pictures.
