37 ford car fenders and hood on 45 pickup cab

will a 37 ford car nose fit on a 45 ford pickup cab ? I enjoy a good-ol challenge.

 

Anything fits anywhere.....just gotta go for it....
Bet its not much trouble....

 

How right you are.OK you talked me into it.Wonder what kind of challenges I will enjoy !

 

Please show lots of pic.s if this works.I would be interisted in maybe doing something simullar.

 

with a six pack and a torch, i can work wonders

 

Wow I'm surprised.No one ever done this swap ?

 

Anything fits if you have a big enough hammer (HAMBer?).

 

I've seen a '37 car front on a '40 pick-up and it looked great.

According to the book Ford Trucks Since 1905 by James A. Wagner the '38 -'47 Cabs are nearly the same except for minor trim details. The biggest changes were made to the '40 -'47 Cabs. The '38-'39 Cabs had opening windshields and wiper blades on the roof. In '40 the A-Pillar, Cowl, and Instrument Panel was changed to accomodate the fixed windshield and cowl mounted wipers. The upper beltline was relocated slightly as well. As you can see in my previous posted pic the '37 car front sheetmetal looks tits on that cab.

 

was that a thompson?

 

Yep- It was at Thompson at the Gasser Nationals

 

This pic and the other one I posted actually have '38 - '39 standard front sheet metal.
