... Bax you may want to call me I have lots of thoughts on Half cabs . You know I've had mine running for about 10 years now. & I've got a Beer Belly . & I think one of the cut up full tops would fit most of us fat boys better than what Ford gave us.
... Cell is 254 592-5455....... Home is 254-968-2890.
.. Crazy but my cell doesn't work inside the house .

The top is for the race truck. The rally rules say I must have a top. Its not like a stock set up. I am fully aware how fat boys are kinda tight in the half cabs.

OK WE HAD A LOT GOING ON THE Farms today. So Rooster was over here helping the 2 big tractors & cutter get into the fields to start cutting .
... Rooster is 6'3 and about 245. So I told him we had this post going on the CLASSIC . So I ask him how much too short is the cab because his knees hit the dash. He said he thought it needs to be back 3 inches . It looks more like 6 inch to me.
... But then he said the top is too low or my seats are too tall ... He said as he sets in the passenger seat he sees over the wipers between the wiper & the top of the cab .. Wow I SEE UNDER THE WIPER BY 4 inches or more.. Hope this helps you some.
