Default Clod vs Blackfoot bodies

I kind of messed up my clod body while trying to fill the scoop hole on the hood...it's not totally dead but the middle line is pretty messed up...I was wondering, if you put a blackfoot side by side with a clodbuster body...are they the same height? I actually only need the front cab as I have a truggy so the wheel well would probably almost be the same, but if it's a little higher might look weird vs the truggy cage behind...it's my first experience with styrene and putty so I wasnt really expecting a pro job...I'll still try to fix it but I might go with a ford body...more original and no hood to fill!

Thanks

I think the Blackfoot body is not as wide.

I think my Blackfoot Xtreme cab is about 7" wide at the widest point. I can let you know the exact measurements later if you want. I was actually curious about this too, if there is another cab that's close in dimensions.

My Blackfoot Xtreme cab measures at its widest and longest points:

Width: 6-3/4" (middle of doors - widest point)
Height: 4-1/4" (rocker panel to top of roof)
Length: 8-5/8" (middle of grille to back wall of cab)

You could make a hoodscoop for the Clod. No hole to fill then.
