Wierdest set of factory appearing doors
Guys I went parts chasing today and came across these doors. All the seams look factory. Never seen a set and didn't know what they came from. Trevor

Re: Wierdest set of factory appearing doors
That is strange!
Maybe they put in a raised roof for a really tall dude!

Re: Wierdest set of factory appearing doors

Re: Wierdest set of factory appearing doors
Not factory, but factory parts frankensteined together. Maybe some sort of side step van or motorhome convo???

Suburbans seat five with ease. It was one set-up for the Harlem Globetrotters

Re: Wierdest set of factory appearing doors
We know John Wayne had a Mitchel camper on a K20 or 4x4 Converted C20/BBC. He also had a custom raised roof/door 66 IHC Travelall. So maybe there was a custom Suburban either for or inspired by him. :-)
So Trevor, did you buy them?

Re: Wierdest set of factory appearing doors
You're all wrong. It's obviously from a safari truck.

Re: Wierdest set of factory appearing doors
School bus conversion would be my guess, that yellow and need height to get people in on the curb side.

Re: Wierdest set of factory appearing doors
Look familiar? It was called an Express 12. It was probably in the late eighties that I saw one while delivering to a school in Kansas or Nebraska...no cell phone camera back then! It would be neat if you could find the rest of it, can't be many left.

Re: Wierdest set of factory appearing doors
I'd have ventured a guess with the "Texas GM/Chevy Truck" version cabs... to fit the extra room needed for the Ten Gallon Hats...

Did someone with a C-10 try to make a Range Rover?
