    Guys...where can I find some pics or drawings detailing the main measurements of Model T and A closed pickup cabs? Door size, window size...overall length and height etc.
    I'm thinking of another project but I need to get a general idea of dimensions etc before I commit.
    Got to fit in the thing with the mods I'd want to do to it. LoL

    I don't have any drawings but my daily is an unchopped 25 model T closed cab and can pull whatever measurements you want.

    Thanks guys! I just might take you up on a couple of quick measurements if no other drawings show up.
    Clik...thats pretty much exactly what I hoped for...minus the window opening measurement and total door height. I imagine a 28 A cab is much the same size wise.
    Model T is still a mystery.
    I'm a bit spooked that the firewall to cab wall is just 4 feet! Thats tight!

    I also have measurements of c cab pickup cabs if needed. I would have to find them in my cad files because I programmed them in dxf to cut them out to make c cabs. Got tired of dealing with people so they just sit there till I want to build some c cab trucks in steel, lol.

    Thats nice Roupe!
    They should have made them like that. It's actually pretty close to what I want to put together, but I want to go with more of a compe***ion look to conform with my T bucket ch***is layout.
    I'm thinking on moving the rear axle back 6" and using a cab and bed sides.
    I'm at the point where I need a bit of comfort for a change...not an "Ironman" award! LoL Around here the weather is either wind, rain or snow.
    It's to the point now that its hard to get someone to go for a run even in the hot, sunny weather because you get wind hammered!
    After a bit of measuring this morning it seems like a cab your size would give the look and interior space I need.
