Cab swap
I have a chance to buy a cab from a 69 Chevy 60 series fire truck that is rust free. Will the cab fit a 71 GMC 2500 k series truck? What are the differences in cabs? Thanks in advance for any information.

Re: Cab swap
The floorboards are different, it's flatter in the big truck cabs. The firewalls are different too if I remember correctly, which would probably be the biggest challenge.

I'm going to look at it and take pictures so I can compare the two. Thanks for the information.

Re: Cab swap
Yes the doors are different, and the rocker panels are 3 inches shorter it appears
