Squarebody club cab in Phx Pick N Pull
Ran across this in the Pick A Part at 3125 W Broadway in Phoenix AZ. Looked pretty saveable to me. Thought I'd alert the forum, I know people are always looking for these.

Re: Squarebody club cab in Phx Pick N Pull
Agreed!! There are times when tying people to the bumper and finding out how far and fast they can run should be allowed, this is one of them. That is way to nice to be sitting there getting picked apart. To bad I don't live closer, I would go get it myself!

Re: Squarebody club cab in Phx Pick N Pull
I'm normally all for parting and scraping, but this one does make you cry just a little. It's been picked pretty hard it looks but could be brought back by someone with deep pockets. If it were at my local yard I'd be trying to buy it cheap, that's for sure.

Re: Squarebody club cab in Phx Pick N Pull
Looks like it could be brought back with a rust bucket doner truck.

Re: Squarebody club cab in Phx Pick N Pull
I took the same pictures of the truck a little over a month ago and just never got them posted up. As I have a parts locating business I am at the wrecking yards weekly so I get to see some really cool stuff.

Re: Squarebody club cab in Phx Pick N Pull
What was that called a while back when the Goverment was paying money for gas eaters. That could be when this was sold. What a waste. That cab will most likely be crushed. (unless someone grabs it)

Re: Squarebody club cab in Phx Pick N Pull
thats crazy. I've been to that exact yard several times! saw a few crewcabs with fold down back seats I would've gotten if I had a way to get them home, but I was flying home. one day I'll find another one.

Re: Squarebody club cab in Phx Pick N Pull
I went and looked at it today. it was a pile of crap, half of it was fiberglass, the roof had about 6 lbs of bondo and the interior trim was all damaged. Not the quality of truck I expected. So I'm on the fence about buying it now. I could put a sliding ragtop in to solve the roof issue, but im not sure I want a ragtop. and where they add on the extended cab they did a real hack job. So I would pretty much have to rebuild the whole thing. they hide all the horrible body work with tons of bondo, and all the horrible welds with interior trim. and the pinch welds on the bottom dont line up. and since my truck lays pinch thats sort of a big deal.

Re: Squarebody club cab in Phx Pick N Pull
From what I have seen most of these trucks had quite a bit of bondo on the roofs. My father in law had one that had the same issues. That is one of the main reasons he sold his.

Re: Squarebody club cab in Phx Pick N Pull
thats too bad, i wonder if it would be better to just make your own, you could start witha longbed adn add 14" to the cab then put a short bed on it

Re: Squarebody club cab in Phx Pick N Pull
