Ah old KB, Kids Beer! 
stop looking!, if it was there!, it would be on the latch side of the passengers door, I ha vent see one in OZ yet!, there might be a build plate on the radiator support panel.
our rego will use the chassis # top of chassis front drivers side! between the support panel and the front cross member,I don't have a pic of that!

Hi Tregs ,Don't panic just have another one of those very bad beers and relax!,,I have seen 61- 66 cab's sitting on galaxy chassis up here in queensland,,they change the out riggers on the chassis to suit the f100 cab and tray ,this will give you better suspension and brakes,It also lowers them down a long way to, Darren

might have a look in the glovebox and under the seat for old registration paperwork.
a couple of the slicks i got had 20 years worth of them inside.
here the vin is printed on the paperwork and theres no inspection needed
all i have to do is take in the title, sign the dmv forms and pay for the plates.

Brian, have you seen his cab?, I don`t think there`s much in the glove box!
tregs, you don`t need any numbers on the cab!, it`s the chassis that will be registered, it will be referred too as a re-bodied what ever the chassis is!

can you guys tell me some good places to buy parts online ? i will also start a build thred in the next few days.
Posted: March 27, 2011, 2:20 am
i would buy from tom at flashbacks. he has everything the big boys have and is a member here and very helpful over the phone. would maybe work with you on shipping too. if not ask macca about how to get parts across the water for a fair price.

Hey, us yanks got to remember - their steering wheels aren't on the wrong side...they're on the RIGHT side! Nyuk, nyuk. I'd love to get my hands on a frame & cab from down under, but I already have an unfinished RHD conversion 67 Ranchero sitting in storage, so I guess that should come first. Nice project, listen to these guys - find a newer frame w/discs, p.s, etc. & bolt your tin on. You'll be way ahead of the game. (unless that bloke comes thru with a nice roller) I have mates in Castlemaine, they're not ford people though. Keep on truckin.

How do you mean?, RHD conversion 67 Ranchero!, do you mean like this one?
