Cab swapping Q's
I currently have a 69 as my daily driver. My cab is shot, I scored a smokin deal on a 67 cab. Will the 67 Cab bolt onto my 69? Or do I need to swap out the front end to match up the 67 cab.

bolt right on. The E-brake handle/mount will be one of the things you will need to mess with I think. The 67s is mounted to the underside of the dash while the 69 is mounted to the side of the kick panel.

Re: Cab swapping Q's
if I remember correctly, The doors on the 67 cab have to stay with that cab. I had a friend try to put a passanger door from a 70 on a 67 cab and he said the hinges would not fit right and the door would not close. So there is a few small parts you will have to watch for the most part it swaps out the same. Did you get the 67 front clip with the cab?

Re: Cab swapping Q's
Cab will swap right over. E-brake is the main difference as already stated.
I am almost positive the doors and hinges are the same.

Re: Cab swapping Q's
Lower door hinge is 67 only [where it bolts to the cab], doors are the same. Door swap should not be a problem as long as you use the 67 lower hinge.
