I need to replace or fix a piece of my passenger rear pillar of the cab. I have found someone willing to cut a piece out for me but his 77(yellow) seems to be less contoured than mine.
I would have thought all cabs would be the same? Slider vs Solid window? Early 77 vs late 77? I know mine is a F150, maybe his is a F100?
To my knowledge they should be the same. I’ve never heard of them being different. I wonder if there was something on the box that got shoved into the cab?
My 77 is a Shortbox F150 4wd. It had a flat piece of glass in it. I replaced it with a tinted sliding rear window from LMC I believe it was. Went right in with a new seal of course.
the window made no difference that I'm sure of. and I'm 99% sure there was no difference from 73-79. I can say this, I have five pickups from '74-79 and they all look like the yellow one not yours. so either there were variations in the stamping or maybe you're going to find a lot of bondo when you get into your repair.
Wow, I have never seen a detail on a mid 70's cab like the tan cab. Seems like a 72 or earlier shape.
Curious about that. You will have to look for another donor. Good luck.
Thanks for all the responses. Thats the interesting part of these older model trucks for me, finding out something interesting all the time. I think i will keep an eye out for a different donor truck as the owner of the yellow truck says it is pretty flat. I actually prefer the contour, gives it a nice shape, but it is definitely factory to that cab
