Can I put a big bolt cab,"I can get a rust free one" on and use 1/2 ton fenders or is the cowel area larger? | | | | | Joined: Mar 2004 Posts: 3,068 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Mar 2004 Posts: 3,068 | The cabs are the same from the little 1/2 tons to the larger 2 tons and everything in between, provided we're talking about an AD series truck,

I could go on about what AD refers to but if you do a search for AD truck you will find reams of material. Good luck with your truck and don't forget the pictures! | | | | | Joined: Jan 2006 Posts: 13 Junior Member | | Junior Member Joined: Jan 2006 Posts: 13 | So could a 1948 Thrift master be considered an AD? | | | | | Joined: Mar 2004 Posts: 3,068 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Mar 2004 Posts: 3,068 | An AD series (Advanced Design) truck goes from 47 second series to 55 first series. So, yes, you have an AD series truck. The trucks before the AD's were nicknamed the Art Deco's and the trucks after were called the Task Force trucks. Hope that helps some, welcome to the Stovebolt,
