The reason for the cab swap
yep, shes a long bed but not for long! BTW, if you need a long bed let me know before I cut this one up!!!! I have the tailgate for it too, the correct one!
The extra cab that will be swapped on

Nice looking truck, er trucks!
You're right, that bed would have been perfect, lol
Here, I'm going to post this just so everyone feels better about how "messy" their garage is.
(before I put the ribbed tailights in)
There, I did the entire build in that little room. It can be done! Course I would not have minded having more than my forearm lenght around it, would have made painting it easier, as well as a clean room and not plastic covering everything and making static. lol
And I actually cleaned that garage spotless after this... and then it some how went right back to being worse. I need more room. A lot more room. And time, and less stress, lol.

Some experts say that Ford changed the 6 cylinder grille emblem from a 3-pointed star in '53 to a a 4-pointed star in 1954 because Mercedes threatened a law suit because they said it looked too much like their emblem....

Thank you sir, that is very kind of you to say.
I live in a typical subdivision in a suburb... heck, most of these people don't even have anything in thier garages but two cars... no shovels no anything. Though the air is shifting... we have gear heads moving in. I see a couple cars on rotiseries now and some projects in some peoples garages...

... it's a garage... it's behind closed doors. Tell em if they don't like vintage they have no taste, lol
I don't have the suburb problem, but I do have the "living in the center of town and having everyone rubber necking when ever I work, including the old people with nothing to do but report me for stupid things" problem, lol. Nothing like having to put on a temp mirror till I get new mirrors in just cause I'd get a note or fine for not having one, that day. lol... lame small town bordem.
