    thanks Bob
    I measured the frame rail widths and found the 71 to be 4 inches narrower then the 46 but did not check the track. I do have the SWB 115". Those anyone have a link to a web page that might show some measurements for all the different years? I have read that the earlier rear fenders (pre 41, I think) are about 2" wider then the mid to late forties. So running early fenders on the later years will make the body wider. I don’t now if its true for the front as well. Either way I'm thinking along the line of a heavily modified rod/body style. I want to chop it other then the window post area. So to bring the hood and side window lines to match the bed. Keeping the stock window configuration. Here are some pics of the idea. My apologies to the owners of these fine machines for modifying there truck pictures, I’m just playing with some ideas (madness)
