Re: Brave or crazy? crewcab build
 

What's kinda sad is that outside of our little truck community, just about anyone else at a car show (or that sees the truck in general) will likely have no clue that 4th doors never existed on these trucks, nor were they any crew cabs built that looked this good (the aftermarket conversions are all fugly). So Kudos for tackling an incredible amount of work, making it look great and function, and most people will never know... those are the best mods ;)

Re: Brave or crazy? crewcab build
 

I finished up the bodywork on the roof and shot some primer on it. Still need to block it out and reprime.

Re: Brave or crazy? crewcab build
 

I also pulled the front driver's door off to strip and bodywork.
I got down to bare metal and guess what I found, more rust.
so I cut it out and fixed it.

Re: Brave or crazy? crewcab build
 

nice work as usual...wish I had the time to pull off a build like this. Would love to have a crew cab so I could fit my whole family inside....prefer the look of the truck to a suburban...

Re: Brave or crazy? crewcab build
 

body work done shot first coat of primer just need to block and reprime

Re: Brave or crazy? crewcab build
 

Nice!

Re: Brave or crazy? crewcab build
 

Turned out great can't wait to see some color.

Re: Brave or crazy? crewcab build
 

I finished up the driver door this morning and hung it.
I also rebuilt the hinges and primed the a pillar. I'm glad all the doors are done only thing left is the cab corners/rear of cab.

Re: Brave or crazy? crewcab build
 

I took this truck apart so long ago I wanted to make sure I have not miss placed anything. So I started digging through all my parts,one thing led to another and this happened.

Re: Brave or crazy? crewcab build
 

Such a cool truck!

Re: Brave or crazy? crewcab build
 

Very nice!

Re: Brave or crazy? crewcab build
 

Nice!!!!!!!!!!!!

Re: Brave or crazy? crewcab build
 

It looks great! It loks like someone has a 6.0 too. The kind without spark plugs. Haha

Re: Brave or crazy? crewcab build
 

I love my 6.0 even though it's a F**D

Re: Brave or crazy? crewcab build
 

Truck looks good bud! Keep it up! Trevor

Re: Brave or crazy? crewcab build
 

I got off work early last friday and blew the truck apart. I needed to weld in some rear seat belt fastners but I could not acess them due to the trailing arm crossmember. So I pulled the cab and made some mounting points for the seat belts.

Re: Brave or crazy? crewcab build
 

Did you end up using that cab stand you got from me?

Re: Brave or crazy? crewcab build
 

This also made it a lot easier to body work the back of the cab

Re: Brave or crazy? crewcab build
 

not yet, I tried but it was just to low and this cab is so heavy I did not want to take a chance of lowering down on it.I think Im going to weld some bar to it so the cab sits up higher.

Re: Brave or crazy? crewcab build
 

Sounds good. The casters I got for that should hold it but it would be a good idea to brace it better. And if you start kicking out a bunch it would be nice to have one all set.

Re: Brave or crazy? crewcab build
 

Cleaned and painted frame body worked back of cab and put rear suspension together.

Re: Brave or crazy? crewcab build
 

Looks great!
