Re: Can The Front Clip Be Unbolted From The Cab In One Piece?...

Thanks guys. Especially Mullet for the link. I'm going to get the front clip in the morning. I'll go back for the cab in a few days when I can get some more help.

And just for the record, the cab should fit in my '63 fleetside longbed if turned sideways, right?




Also, I'm pretty excited about all this. I'm getting the cab and front clip including the hood for a really good deal. There should be a lot of usable parts I need. I know there's 1 good door (all good glass and internals), 1 repairable door (good glass etc.), 1 good fender (no holes), 1 good repairable fender (usual holes at the bottom), excellent windshield (mine's cracked), vin plate, excellent dash with all knobs and gauges, steering wheel and column, etc.. There's also two Unity spotlights mounted on the roof. It's basically complete minus headlights, I'm buying it for the doors, windshield, and fenders.

I may end up using the cab too. It's got a big dent on top, but I could swap my roof and big back window onto it. Or I'd have to cut out the section above the windshield of the new cab and graft it onto my cab (along with swapping windshields). I'll have to wait and see how good this new cab is before I make any decisions. I've already looked it over, just not gone over it with a fine tooth comb.
