Re: Legally swapping cabs?
I know there are legality issues involved, people go to prison for tampering with body ID information. I also assume this mostly relates to newer vehicles that are switched with intent to defraud someone else.
On something this old, if it were mine, I'd switch the parts I wanted and the ID tag that goes with the truck you're driving. Nobody but you will ever be able to prove it didn't come that way, and since you own both anyway, it just seems the easiest solution. I know years ago in California it was a big deal the frame, body and engine numbers all had to match the original paperwork. I've been swapping engines for 40 years and never once had a problem with DMV.
