Projects F1 Guru's.....Newbie need a litte help

I just received my new shop manual and i will be dambed my luck if it ain't just that a mech manual!!!.So if i am out to make it run or tune it up i am covered.This is my first 1951 F1 it is all original factory down to the 8ba flathead inwhich i intend to stay with and overall the the truck is in good shape.There are a few body and chassis parts i am looking to replace such has running boards body mount brackets;front end parts,sheet metal...ect.So if at all possible could somebody school me on what general rule of thumb for what year models of the early 1950's f1 parts interchange on these old girls

Upfront Thanks

 

Change your title, you have Fi which is fuel injection. Not F1, which is trucks.

I know FI, not F1s

 

Thanks for the correction i don't guess i ever heard of of a fi myself

 

1951 has some exclusive parts like the rear fenders and bed.
If you want deluxe cab look for chrome around the windshield and the side medallion on the hood trim.
Just a couple things off the top of my head.

 

Thanks for the reply.This is some of the info i am looking for

 

Take a look at lmctruck.com, denniscarpenter.com, national parts depot. These companys have catalogs for 48-52 F1's. The catalogs will let you know what years the parts will work with. The cab mounts are the same for all years, The fenders are not all the same, etc. Pm me if you need anything specific.

 

I have good runningboard brackets if that i what you need. PM me for info.

 

This will get you started. BobJ49F2 around most of the forums put this together.
