thinking of swapping cab

I have found another cab to buy, it's off a 1961 truck though, does the 61 cab mount and have any other differences or am I stuck with just a 1963, my truck is a 63 so what fits.

Re: thinking of swapping cab

guy wants 250 for the cab, roof and windshield area are mint, has newer windshield and rear glass, is it worth it to buy it for the panels and glass or should I pass until I find a 63 cab that fits.

Re: thinking of swapping cab

If you get the 61 cab you will need to get the front cab perches off of the 61 frame and bolt to your frame. Then you can use it on your 63.
