Crew Cab Pics Please

I have a 68 chevy "6 man rail cab" (what i now it as) (the crew cab that has all 4 doors as front doors). Im just looking for pics of what people took this cab as "stock" to a true crew cab (with the rear door changed to be fullsized rear doors and not with front doors in back anymore). Please pic your pics and what you used and a short statement of how you did it. Thanks!

They were on the truck when I go it, but they are cut down front doors. If you look in this thread it shows exactly how to build them, post #137:

Neither. This was built from 2 individual cabs. You can read more here:

Re: Crew Cab Pics Please

the only thing i'm having trouble with is the wind shield I understand the roof you would cut it behind the wind shield or peel the spot wields out of the wind shield but the bottom do you cut just in back of the door across or kinda up more tward the fire wall ??? sorry to be askin so many questions but I want to do this as well and I have never done anything like it except for replacing a floor piece the other day look up my beater

Re: Crew Cab Pics Please

Did someone make this cab from two standards or was this a factory built one?
