Hi...I have a 64 frame with a 65 cab on it. I was looking at replacing the cab with one that was in better shape. Mines not a total waste...but needs metal. When I bought truck it was painted and looked good. Rust starting to cone through. Front of hood,Botttom of fenders,driversside roof in corner,center of back glass has a few bubbles. Cab supports look rough. Im searching for a cab without alot of these problems even though mine is fixable. I found a c-60 someone is parting out. I havent seen the truck (would have to ship)but if it is almost rust free...is this the same body? I know fenders are different...cab looks the same. Any guidence would be greatly appreciated.

The cabs are the same,if there's any differences it'll be cab mounts due to the c60 frame.
hopefully someone who knows this for sure will chime in

I got lost in thought
It wasn't familiar territory

I have never tried the swap, but I have also heard that the cab mounts and sections of the floors are pretty much different.

If its a conventional cab & not a LCF it will work, you will need to drill the floor for 1/2 ton frame mounts & move the mounting washer to that location
If its a LCF(has a short hood & lower front edge of doors are cut off) all bets are off as floors/fenders all diff
