Topic: 36 Truck Doors

  I am looking for doors for my 36 1.5 ton. A forum member has 2 37 pickup doors. We are both trying to figure out whether they are the same as mine. I know my cab (& doors) are the same as the 36 pickup, but there may be a difference on the 37. Anybody out there know?

  35 through 37 doors should interchange, the 37's had a slightly altered cab with a vee windshield, but the doors should interchange. 38's gained a "busy beltline" and an increased radius to the side window corners. Ford didn't spend a lot re-styling their trucks from 35-39 + and kept that same cab for another 10 years; all the way up to 1947 on the cab-overs. Much of the front end sheet metal will interchange over that 4-year period, albeit incorrectly.
