The cab on my 1970 D100 Utiline is rusted beyond repair. What years and models are a direct replacement? I only need to replace the cab itself. The fenders and doors are salvageable if necessary. Are there any years or models that can be made to fit or adapted in some way? Since the candidates for

Hi Al,
The easiest candidate would come from a '69-'71 100 or 200
series Sweptline. You could also consider a 300 & up ['69 or later]
cab but would have to section in part of the drive line tunnel and
slightly modify the opening for the steering column. The
pre-'69 cabs had a different clutch [hydraulic] set up and
the wiring harnesses were different. Additionally, cabs earlier
than '67 had different door striker/latch set ups. Hope this
helps you out. Welcome to the site!
