'68 f350 restore fit 73 roof panel

Post by rccc123 »

Hello, Looking for info on my '68 350 roof repair (drip rail rusted through to inside) I found a fairly nice '73 cab with a rust free roof panel. Can anyone tell me if these will mate up if were cutting at the top of the struts and the bottom of the rear window basically replacing full roof section. Obviously a cab swap wont work as its dent v bump but it looks like it may mate at those attachment points which would work great for us. Any info or suggestions greatly appreciated.
Thanks, Rick

Probably come pretty close to matching. We already know the windshields are the same so the front profile should be about right. The sides should be pretty close too. Only question is the rear. Depending on your body skills you could make just about anything work. If it's a scrap body go ahead and cut it out, lay it on top of your truck and see how it looks. Be sure and let us know if it works out. 8)
