57 glove box door interchangability?
What years of glove box door fit the 1957 F100 and are there any differences in them between custom cab and whatever other models there were? (no, not 1954! It's a 1957)
I need to replace a pitted chrome one with a paintable one.
(Remember - Mongo no like chrome, especially pitted chrome)
Thanks,

I refer to our years trucks as 'the Orphan Years Trucks' & those are '57, '58, '59 & '60, which are the 1st of the "Styleside" Trucks, after the Intro of the "Styleside" body, Flaresides became an Option.
Everthing is interchangable from the Fire Wall on back Body Wise, as the '59-'60 truck had a Re-desiged front Sheet Metal that was Only compatable w/ each other.
Due to the Rectangular Turn Signals (round for '57-'58), Deeper Front portion of the Hoods (which became even deeper in '60), Deeper Cut Portion of the Grilles (same as the former metioned for '60), Fenders & Vallance both had the Rectangular cut-outs for the Matching Turn Signals.
So anything you are able to find out of a '57, '58, '59 or '60 F/M-100/250/350 truck cab interior should be rather suitable for what you need.

So 57 to 60 will work.
(And 60 in particular would help me in my goal to use components from every decade since she was built.....)
Thank you,
