Thanks Pig's

I had someone, only on the weekend, ask me about '55 F100's
He's always wanted one, so I'll print this off and give it to him.

No worries Mate, I reckon he has hit a niche Market here, all steeled out, also has Full Flip fronts too I believe and is the only one doing these in Australia, talk is only one other Guy doing them and he is in the States, what is the difference with the '56 Model Cabs that he has not included them here?

G'day,
I'm not really the one to ask about Effy's but I think the back window is different ??? Not sure what else.

The A pillar slopes the other way is the main noticeable difference

. I've seen these bodies up close and they are quite good.

Oh.........of course

it makes the windscreen look different side on. Was there a difference in the back windows ??
As mentioned I know bugger all about them, but it seems I might have one to do in the future. a '55 that is.

I spoke to the Bloke's Brother via PM and told him about the Site so hopefully he will swing by and give some more info on these and anything else they have on the boil...

on a 56 cab the roofline hangs out over the front screen like a mini sunvisor ( if you get what I mean )

46 deluxe · Post by **46 deluxe** » Thu Apr 03, 2008 12:18 pm

here's a 56

Doors are different, so is roof , windscreen, dash,all other body panels ie bonnet, guards, chassis etc are the same.

I was gunna list the diffrences but a picture says it all. Ta!
The only thing I would add is that the deluxe cab in a 56 also comes with a larger back window.
Conversion's to big back windows are available now and are starting to appear on slant cabs in the US.

Hi all,

Thanks pigs for refering me to this site.

Yes my brother has started producing the glass F100 cabs you see here.

The yellow truck for sale is actually my dads. He also has a A model coupe for the true hot rodders here.

Anyway my brother is currently in WA and his number has changed so anyone interested in a cab can contact him on 0447092847.

I have included a link which includes a picture of my brothers blue F100. May provide some inspiration for someone to buy a cab

Another link below of pictures of the yellow F100 and my blue mustang (also for sale) for anyone who is interested.
