probably a 3 door, those look like burb doors. I would suspect a burb conversion here.

Awesome project truck.What do you mean when you ask if it`s for real?It looks real to me.

Re: 1968 4 door? Is this for real
 

I assume he ment is it original.

That`s cuz you`re an aaa...nevermind:exit:
I`d assume the same.I don`t see that the seller claime one way or another.I di find it strange that if that was all custom done in the v=nicest way,IMO,how did it get in that condition so quickly.That`s no recent work.That truck`s been done and run hard.Not usually what you`d do after doing all that work to build a truck just the way you want it.
I bed that`s a much older conversion.Perhaps done professionally back when the truck was new.

I call photo shop, If you look real closely, you can see where they blended in the extra doors.

Historically, GM failed to see the market earlier than they did, and farmed them out(sacrificing styling). I know Dodge, Ford and International offered cleaner factory jobs a lot earlier. This truck looks like the way the factory should have made them, they way made them in 1973 and up.

What? :confused: :lol:

Look at the back door. It has the back non movable window like burbs have. I agree it was probably a burb as well. The conversions cabs were usually funky looking.

Normally people don't Photoshop ads for sale? I think Special K is on to something, very early Suburban custom or a factory conversion, they are not that rare...have seen a few for sale lately, that one at least was not P/U doors.

Re: 1968 4 door? Is this for real
 

I would say it is not factory and a custom 3 door like LonghornMan said. But it could have been built somewhat recently. The builder possibly could have only had used parts that weren't in the best of shape and then straighten it out once it was built. But then they could have run out of money or lost interest.

I am heading that way on monday, i will get some more pics of it and post them up. For the price i might have to have this one

Hit the "Buy it now" button.:lol:

Definately not factory.Not no never no way no how.But,sure looks like it`s been around awhile.

Could be a cool hauler. Maybe a full airbag setup.

Here's a really quick photochop. Dropped and wheels. Still not happy with the look of the rear wheel (oh well).

Sarcasm, gentlemen. :lol:

Re: 1968 4 door? Is this for real
 

Man, that was a HORRIBLE job at sarcasm... you forgot the :lol: thingy!

Seriously though, your statement sounded "serious." Ooops :D

Re: 1968 4 door? Is this for real
 

Well, one could always

Captain Obvious checking in here. What happened to the 68 front clip?

Re: 1968 4 door? Is this for real
 

:lol: well, captain obvious, the ad clearly states "1970 blazer front clip" :lol:

its okay, i had to go and double check myself. :smoke:

have to agree with the suburban conversion. most crew cabs that were "farmed out by the factory" were simply two more pickup doors (angled windows) on the back of the cab, they looked really strange.

that must of been a stretched frame though, i dont think you could get a longbox on the back of a cut down suburban? :crazy:

Re: 1968 4 door? Is this for real
 

Is this thread going anywhere?I`m not following where any of this is going.

Re: 1968 4 door? Is this for real
 

Looked at the pic, but didn't open the link....

Captain O out.

Re: 1968 4 door? Is this for real
 

Definitely a 4 door and built from a burb. Here's some better pictures.

Re: 1968 4 door? Is this for real
 

Sarcasm is best served with a straight face. :metal:

Re: 1968 4 door? Is this for real
 

any pictures of the frame being stretched? geuss not.

looks like a decent convertion, would definatly make a great toy hauler!

Re: 1968 4 door? Is this for real
 

Looks like a really good price

Re: 1968 4 door? Is this for real

air ride, big wheels, paint job, big block you get the idea...
