The fenders, grill, and hood on a chevy are different compared to the gmc. They aren't compatible. Go to the gallery and take a look at some of the trucks in there and you will see what i mean. The doors will work however. But during 47-55, there were minor changes. 47-50 use turn handle, no side window vent, 51 has turn handle no vent, 52-55 have push button handle and side vents. Hope this helps you out. | | | | | Joined: Apr 2002 Posts: 2,168 A teacher, but always an apprentice. | | A teacher, but always an apprentice. Joined: Apr 2002 Posts: 2,168 | as for the cabs, i asked the same question, the answer was that are interchangable. Make sure it isn't a COE however. ( Cab Over Engine-a stubnose) | | | | | | Anonymous Unregistered | | Anonymous Unregistered | hood and grill are different, but front fenders are the same except for the parking light holes in the GMCs - a GMC fender and a welder with a small disk of metal will make a chevy fender.
All of the nose clip parts are common from 1/2 ton to 1 ton and then they get bigger at 1-1/2 ton on up. Cabs are the same from 1/2 ton to 2-1/2 ton. | | | | | Joined: Sep 2003 Posts: 16 Junior Member | | Junior Member Joined: Sep 2003 Posts: 16 | thanks Fox&Ken you have confirmed my thoughts.
