Does anyone know if 40 ford car and truck front fenders are the same and will they interchange ????and are the hoods the same?
thanks for any info that yall can provide!
 
Hood is totally different...fenders from a car can be modified to work. Inner fenders are the same, car, (std/dlx), and truck. The grill from a std car is the same as a truck. Yes, the deluxe grill will bolt in place, but if you want to put a dlx car hood on a truck, it takes both a truck hood and car hood to build a hood that will work. PLEASE IF YOU BUILD THAT HOOD, hack up a 42-47 truck hood for the back because stock 40-41 truck hoods are very hard to find!
The nose of a '40 passenger car is longer than a PU. Even if you fit the car fenders to the PU cab, you'll have to fabricate the bracing to the front cross member as the stock V yoke will no longer bolt up in the right location.
