Re: Trying to piece together a project, have questions

>will a 54 cab bolt up to a 1950 chassis?
the front cab mounts yes
the rear cab mounts in '50 were rubber bushed shackles, if the frame has them then I 'think' they will bolt up to the 54 cab. If not you just need to find or make a mount much like the front cab mounts for the rear. People do this when the bushing in the shackles fail anyway

>Will a 47-53 front sheet metal bolt up to the 54 cab?
yes

the early bed should bolt down to the frame the same, it just has angled tops on the bed sides and stake pockets with beaded edges. cosmetic changes, few people will notice.

mr48chev will correct me if I have any of this wrong
