67' small rear window cab section - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**richard2717** · 04-03-2012, 08:24 PM

I just picked up a 67 parts truck (with not much left)
The cab is rotten for the most part but te back window area seems to be very solid. Is it worth cutting out a large section of the metal areaaround the window for converting a large to small? If so what would it be worth?

Truck also has what appear to be rear factory helper springs? Coil spring rear but has brackets at back of frame and a half leaf comes down to the back of the lower coil plate. Are these worth removing? Any idea on value?

Thanks
Richard

I have seen helper springs sell. On the 67-72 most people just swap the cab it's not like the 60-66 to do a conversion.Post some pics. The 67 has a lot of one year only so you might have some little things that you can sell.

Thanks James
Here are a few pics. I got it mainly for the front clip. I am going to use it on the 71 blazer I think. It has some rust but it is a starting point. I knew that some things on it may be one year items only but don't know what most of them are. I know the back window, ignition and door handles were one year. but it was missing the 67' doors, the yellow ones are off the PO 68' and have no guts at all.
The cab is pretty rotten along the drip rail, floors and above the windshield but the back window, save a few dents, is in good shape. I figure I may go ahead and cut it out and just hang it on the wall for now in case someone may need it in the future

Also are these the correct seatbelts for a 67'? I know the red paint that is brushed on everywhere in the truck is not but I figure I will clean it off and see what they look like underneath
