1967-72 Ford truck cabs

Just curious to know if anyone has done an accurate 3D print or taken the time to correct the proportion problems on this offering...  

It's definitely beyond the average modeler's ability but can be mostly done.

At the same time, maybe to a 1 1/2 ton- 3 ton front end conversion.

That could work... interesting to note that the dentside version of these F5-800 truck cabs still used the 68-72 dash for the better instrumentation, proving the cabs share internal architecture.

Some discussion on the why of desiring an accurate cab...

All for the want of taking a tooling mockup out into the sunlight with calipers, measuring tape and a calculator...

I'm guessing that the GM guys are hoping the licensors care a little more about representation of their intellectual properties than the Ford

reps apparently did
