Potato Head Ford truck under construction

[FenderMender]

Piecing together a bunch of old parts from the past to make a Model A pickup truck.  Since I know very little about Model As in particular, I would like to be able to make this model appear at least somewhat authentic.  Hopefully someone here can say whether photo A or B is technically correct.  Photo B shows the model overlapping the frame; photo A has black tape representing the frame. In both photos, the cab is in the same position overlapping the frame and resting on it.  

 

Photo A

Photo B 

 

The questions are: (1) are both applications technically correct (2) which version makes the cab look the lowest (3) which version would you select if it was your build???

Additionally, any comments concerning any aspects of this build would be greatly appreciated.

 

Thanks in advance.

What's going on with the cab?! There isn't any panel lines?!

[FenderMender]

The panel lines were all filled in when this cab was modified back in the 1960s.  I recently decided to build a pickup truck out of it and will scribe panel lines at least on the doors.  That is why I ask the questions about which version to use, photo A or photo B.  In photo A the panel line for the bottom of the door would be at or above the black tape.  In photo B, could the panel line be just above the bottom of the cab and be realistic?

I don’t think that cab represents any real world vehicle, so you can basically do whatever works best for you. Here is a ‘36 Ford for reference.
