    As I said new to the site so it takes a little longer to figure out how this place works.
    Anyway from the floor to the top of the crown of the top my truck is 70 1/2".
    That being said remember I have a 1 1/2" drop on the front spring and I reworked the rear with coil overs. The stance when I got the truck was much higher in the rear. The front wheels are stock 16" and the tire adds about 6". If things are close you might consider using Mercury wheels or 78-80 F150 wheels. Both of these are 15" and 5x5.5 lug pattern. A few years ago I was pulling an engine and found it wouldn't clear the fenders so I took the front wheels off and got the engine out. Where there is a will there is a way!

    Thought you might enjoy a shot of the "old school" interior. I switch the temp gauge between the sides of the flathead with a toggle switch.. Made the gauge panel out of a heat pump cover, enjoy.
