I have some pictures at work on how it was done, basically the back of the cab was cut right behind the doors of course then followed the drip rail to about the middle of the roof and straight across so that it was in the flat area. Then it was just filled in with regular body metal, with a slight roll.

I thought that this was the same truck but the drip rails are different. Unless it was a later modification.

I'm not sure I agree with the rear side window objections to them having a corner up top-front. That does reflect the oem side window–corner in front, rounded in back (along the top). I would jump on that truck "if I were a rich man, dada-dada-dada-dada...."

It needs a bench-bucket seat instead of that space robbing console. Easy change. The engine pic is to close-up and blurry. A/C makes this truck especially cool, considering it is "Sun ray absorber black." Any bed dimension changes seem tolerable since I would have to throw out any major purist objections anyway before taking the leap. TBI that engine and it'd be a great daily driver. And an endless conversation starter.

Yea, its does have very clean fab work but I agree with others, its out of my price range. Would be nice to have the room for my family though. Nevermind that idea. lol Later.

It looks nice. I just dont have 10,000 for it.

Dean23 · 12-30-2004, 10:22 PM

Looks nice. the extended cab isnt to bad. good fab work. but if you could fab an extended cab one thinks you could fab something nicer than a wood console

mocwon · 12-31-2004, 02:26 AM

Nice lookin’ truck from 25 feet away on the internet but I’d have to see it up close and in person before buying.
