Will a 1965 GMC 19500 GVW Cab fit a 1965 Chevy C-10?

[markbritt]

I came across a solid original 1965 GMC stripped cab that I am thinking of purchasing as a replacement for my rusty 1965 Chevy C10 cab. I cannot find out anything on this cab, but it has a VIN number of "V4008 F12345E" From what I can tell, the "E" stands for GVW of 19500. This is supported by a GMC sticker on the firewall stating the truck was 19,500 GVW. Aside from that, I cannot find anything on the VIN and don't know what kind of truck this came from.

That aside, attached are two pictures of the cab - the interior dash is different, but I can remove mine and install it - if that is the only difference??

On the exterior, the hole for the steering column is circular and there is a bar across the transmission hump. Also the inner fender well mounts are a bit different.

Does anyone know if this cab would be a good candidate for a replacing my C-10 Cab (with minor modifications)? It "appears" to be dimensionally correct to my C-10, but couldn't spend a lot of time measuring. I am just comparing pictures.

Any help, as always, is appreciated.

Lastly, what would be an honest price for this cab?

Yes, it will fit, the steering column hole is definitely different but cut and patch yours in there.

You will have to move the front cab support holes inward. The original frame was wider.

Looks like a solid cab as big trucks alot of the times are.
Something to consider is how would you title it? GMC or Chevrolet?
I have a bare 65/66 GMC cab so if you need any reference pics or measurements, just let me know.

One other difference is that the GMC cab is setup for a hydraulic clutch. That may or may not make a difference depending on what you are planning for the brakes. All of those minor differences are definitely workable.
