cab top same on 67-72?
I am looking for a cab top to chop off as a donr and put on my 72. Mine has rust around entire drip rail. My body man said he could cut the top off one and replace my top with that. I could go for a whole cab, but the rest of mine is perfect. Floor pan, roller, cab corners etc. Would any 67-72 top fit my truck? I would be cutting it from about the top of the front window all the way around. May even go down 5-6 inches and do the cuts.

Yeah I have seen the outer roofs and would go that way, but I have rust through around drip rail and even makes it leak inside a bit. Some bubbles on inside, but nothing too bad. I want to cut the top to be sure I can get to and traet all the rust even down in the cab arms.

Yes. You can use a roof from a 67-72. They are all gonna be the same with the exception of the small window 67 cab.

Re: cab top same on 67-72?
they are the same, but there are some variations allowed during assembly so make sure you fit the doors before fully welding back together
