Hello there all well I'v been thinking of building a 50's ford cab over and using a pickup cab.My question is do I have to make the cab wider if putting on 3 ton frame for example if I use ford C 600 frame will it work or not?

The fenders were wider on the medium and heavy duty Fords, but the cab would be the same. On the 1947-53 GM trucks the hood and fenders were a few inches longer and the fenders were a few inches wider. the headlights were also an inch higher but in 1/25 that isn't really worth bothering with.

Dencon resin does a nice 1948-50 Ford F-8 with or without a sleeper.

Sorry I just realized you want to do a COE, RMR has quite a few available if you decide not to do it yourself.
