I`m looking for pics of the back of cabs of different 40`s and 50`s trucks. I have to hand build this section for my Hillman project and would like to see how the lines and shape turn from the door around the back.
thanks

Carnut.com is a grat site but It is hard to hunt for pics of rigs from the back.It is just a hit and miss to find them.I don`t know if anybody else find it but it is not a fast site for up loads.

Probably a bit "newer" than you had in mind -- '48 F-1 . . .

No that is the stuff I`m after.Would be great to see some with the box off.I`m looking for How the roof rolls.what windows look like, cab corners and how body lines follow around the back.But I can`t expect everthing.Thanks for the pic.

The back of this F-100 COE cab is typical of early F-100 cabs, showing the stiffening ribs that are normally hidden by the bed.
