I wonder if these utility bodies can be mated to the Atlas F150?

The CMW Ford pick ups are 1 ton I believe,and the ATLAS Fords are 1/2 ton short wheelbase (unless you want to alter the cab)..If you stretched the ATLAS frame it should work out though.

These would look best on GHQ 93-96 F series cabs as they all look the same. River Point Models does plan on making their F250 model in N scale in the near future.

The F150 was never meant for heavy duty jobs.
