'64 cab on a '65 chassis?
I've recently purchased a '64 F-100 cab and doors and would like to know if I can bolt it on a '65 chassis with relatively little effort? Thanks.

If I ain't mistaken it should bolt right up!

Nope, 64s and 65s are different. Sorry!

Nathan, recon with a little effort he could make it work though, since he has already bought it. It might not be a direct bolt up, but I think he could make some mods, and have a nice cab on his truck.

Whattyathink?

Actually, John, I think he should just give me that 64 cab and get a 65-66 cab to bolt on. Sounds fair to me!! How about you?

The F-350 cab was the same from '61-'66, as far as I know, but the F-100 and F-250 cabs had a design change between '64 and '65. Just to make swaps even more exciting.

I thought it would be worth a shot. Where are you from, Billy? The later cab would be a much easier install, plus the added leg room is nice if you need it.

What's the purpose of swapping chassis to start with? Twin I-Beam? If so, can the front suspension not be swapped out, without transplanting the entire chassis?
