Sorry but my buddy chopped the photo at the end. I thought this truck was cool.

Was this a four door from the factory? This was taken from Cruise Central in Phoenix. Lot of kick a$$ rides down there this past weekend.

That looks liek a crown modified truck.
Like the 67 - 72 trucks, and even more modern cars (think camaro convertable...caviler convertable...conversion vans...ect) GM didn't make them. They made incompleted vehicles that got sent to an after production modification shops and then sent to the dealer for sale.
Call it original
Don't call it original, either way SOMEONE will tell you that you're wrong.

I think the "politically correct" term is factory authorized conversion. That's what they called my 97 1/2 ton crewcab. It started life as a regular cab and was converted to a crewcab by Centurion Conversion company. Since it was done to GM specs using all GM parts it was covered by GM warranty....

Regardless of what it's called, that crewcab is cool!

That sounds more like it. It sure was a clean job either way. I wish we would have gotten some better pics. I looked at if for a long time wishing I had one.

It`s had to get good pictures at cruises and shows when they`re all lined up and hoods open.Don`t you wish sometimes you could ask people to close the hood and pull it out to get a good shot?I`m not quite that bold(or ignorant?)That`s the nicest crew cab in that body I`ve seen.

I saw a mid 60's at Auburn IN Kruse Auction car corral just like that, had no doors in back, and the bed was also extended, looked like a truck limo. Stupid me didn't take a camera.

Is the crew cab between 63-66? Could have been an answer to IH Carry all . International Harvester was had been piddling with that sort of room. ha GM SHOT IH OUT OF THE SADDLE, True or not I just like to brag on GM.
