Re: C-60 Truck

yes the cab will swap over, a couple of things, the vin # will show as a 2.5 ton truck when you go to register it, so you will have to go through whatever proper steps needed to get it registered as a 1/2 ton, usually a bill of sale for the cab and new frame will suffice to get the vin re-assigned to the new weight.

you will need to get the firewall side of the transmission tunnel and high, or low hump plate from a c/10- 30 truck.

my c 60 is mounted to the outer mounts (like a 60-62 frame) in the front, but the provisions for the 63-66 frame are still there as well.

the provisions for the rear mounts are there.

there is a support brace at the front of the transmission tunnel that will need to be removed, on some c/60's it is bolted on.

you will need to re position the lower inner fenderwell mounts, unfortunately that is a 66, so they are a one piece unit (on the earlier trucks they are just bloted on ), but this should be a minor problem to fix.

neat truck , hood looks good , interesting that they would pay for a bbw on a truck with a grain box...
