Leftover parts build?
i have a ton of left over parts laying around, a 1998 4x4 frame and diesel runing gear with 4.56 gears and lockers and 15x10 centerline hellcats on 35" rubber, a complete 72 body that will be the truck of choice and as for the drivetrain a 00 4.8 liter and auto tranny with transfer case and all the wiring and everything. Also a turbo off of a 6 cylinder perkins diesel.
Now here is my question do you think that i could somehow get the interior from the 00 chevy into the 72, how much modification would it take? Will i have to stretch the cab? use the firewall.... i am really considering this now thanks James

Re: Leftover parts build?
Time X money X willingness X skills= whatever you can dream.
Sounds like a lot of work and modification but if you have the desire..........

Re: Leftover parts build?
That last one could hang you up.
 What you desire has been done.There`s that cinnamon/bronze custom-built crewcab that`s been flashed around the site off of Ebay.I think it was just shown again in the last week.It would be great to track down who built that to pick their brain.You can`t see it,but the dash is in their.
