The Ford Barn

I'm lookin at a 1951 Ford F6 truck. I think it is a F6 because it has 8.25 X 20 split rim wheels.

Is the cab on this F6? truck the same physical size as a 1/2 ton pickup cab? If so, will the 1/2 ton pickup front sheet metal/front clip parts be a direct bolt on?

Thanks,
Mike

Cabs are the same. The front sheetmetal is the same overall size, but 1/2 ton ( F1 ) has smaller wheel openings than the F2 - F6 sheetmetal. It bolts on but with he larger wheels/tires they will hit when turning.
