[B]1947 Body question[/B]
I have a complete chassis off a 3100 that I did a complete rebuild on and it's ready to go. I'm looking for a body to drop on top, i have found a really good 1947 /3/4 ton or 3600 I wanted to know if there are any differnces other than the bed. I know the 3100 had a 6.5ft bed and i believe the 3600 had a 7ft bed so could I just put a short bed on this and drop in on the 3100 frame? Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks, byrne66 |

As far as I know the cabs are the same. 48 also has the same cab while 49 went to two rear cab mounts and the gas tank was put inside the cab.

Except for the COE, 1/2 to 2 ton AD trucks used the same cab shell. Fenders, grill, hood and bumpers are the same size for 1/2, 3/4 & 1 ton.
