    A 31 looks damn close a little shorter and the panel behind the cab curves upward wear a 32 is straight.
    I'll check the wheel openings and let you know if they're the same next time I'm at the shop.

    I think the 32 box is wider than the Model A...

    A 32 bed is wider by 8 inches and is pretty much a wide bed late 1931 bed. The model a bed is 40 inches wide . My buddy Scott ran a 32 cab with a model A bed and looked good .

    I’ve seen it done before, but I think it looks too small with the 32 cab.

    But we decide
    Which is right
    And
    Which is an Illusion

    Or in this case what bed looks correct


    Take the lower metal off from bed.. I think it would look like a big pimple on the end of your nose..

    IMG_20190827_125145.jpg 20180718_145220.jpg 20180718_145242.jpg I built a filler panel between the bed and the frame.... If I had it to do over I'd raise it up 2 or 3 inches more..
