Re: Project '66 Dirtrod: K-30 Extended Cab
 

very nice ! great idea on the cab dolly too

Re: Project '66 Dirtrod: K-30 Extended Cab
 

I don't know, maybe I didn't see it mentioned but isn't that a 60-62 dash and then 64-66 door style??? What a beautiful fabrication job!

Re: Project '66 Dirtrod: K-30 Extended Cab
 

Thanks Dino, that dolly is gonna really be invaluable as we move it from shop to shop to work out body mounts, the cage, and then back to paint.

Re: Project '66 Dirtrod: K-30 Extended Cab
 

Thanks, appreciate that...and yes, you are correct on the dash swap. We both really preferred the symmetry of the double hump, and the cut-outs on each side will accommodate the a-pillar down tubes of the cage.

Re: Project '66 Dirtrod: K-30 Extended Cab
 

Very Nice :metal:
Let me know when you are ready to build my extended cab for me... gotta give that cab rack a real workout.. :lol:

Re: Project '66 Dirtrod: K-30 Extended Cab
 

That is looking great! Keep up the excellent work. I really like the dash swap and the extended cab windows...you guys are doing an awesome job...keep the updates coming our way!

Re: Project '66 Dirtrod: K-30 Extended Cab
 

well said! x2

Re: Project '66 Dirtrod: K-30 Extended Cab
 

Thanks y'all, it means the world to me to be able to share this passion with my son (and family).

My boy worked with our paint/body buddy/guru, Dennis, again today to get the cab roughed in and under a coat of primer so we can bring it home for a couple months while he undergoes/recovers from a bit of spinal surgery.

WoW!

Re: Project '66 Dirtrod: K-30 Extended Cab
 

Cant wait to see it on that killer chassi, congrats:metal:

Re: Project '66 Dirtrod: K-30 Extended Cab
 

Thanks again guys!

The bottom of the cab has been under coated and we sprayed a few coats of primer onto it for now. All the extension is done on the outside, but we still have the inside panels to do, along with fixing a few dings and smoothing down the exterior.

Totally impressive !!

Re: Project '66 Dirtrod: K-30 Extended Cab
 

Nice work. Looks great. :metal:

Re: Project '66 Dirtrod: K-30 Extended Cab
 

Thanks guys, it's nice seeing this part come together...lot's left to do though.

My boy brought it home today. We'll work out the cage details at a buddy's shop over the next few weeks (months?), get the body mounts done, and reassemble the front clip (probably a few times), work out the bed details, basically have to finish the rest of the truck before disassembling for final bodywork and paint.
We'll paint it out in pieces and eventually reassemble...shouldn't take but another couple years:lol::lol:

Few pics of it in the sunlight...it's been about 2 1/2 years since it was last outside. :metal:

Re: Project '66 Dirtrod: K-30 Extended Cab
 

I might have missed it, but what kind of rear side windows & seal will you be using?

Re: Project '66 Dirtrod: K-30 Extended Cab
 

Killer work, you and your boy....

Re: Project '66 Dirtrod: K-30 Extended Cab
 

You guys should be proud! That looks awesome. Keep up the hard work!

Re: Project '66 Dirtrod: K-30 Extended Cab
 

We will be having a window cut from smoked glass and glued in on the same plane that the front windows will rest on.

Re: Project '66 Dirtrod: K-30 Extended Cab
 

And speaking of front windows, we picked these up. Smoked one-piece windows and the power window kit. :metal:

Re: Project '66 Dirtrod: K-30 Extended Cab
 

Where did you find those? I have not seen that kit before that I know of. I will be curious to see how the install goes.

Re: Project '66 Dirtrod: K-30 Extended Cab
 

Your truck is looking killer...thanks for sharing the new pictures with us!
