    Truck cab question

    Hey kids, stupid new guy question here: which vintage truck cab (say '26-'42?) would have the most leg room? I ask because after driving and sitting in several '32 Ford roadsters & coupes I think I'd prefer a bit more leg room if possible. In my brother's roadster, for example, you really have...
