1967 C20 CrewCab chassis

[hotrodmtodd]

I will try to do Cliffs notes. The basic plan is to do a "sleeper" cab using 2 opposing rear halves, (separate from the front cab) but I want to use a 6 footer (already have one) to keep the overall length down. I would LIKE to go with rear coils, but I realize all the EXISTING long frames will be leaf, so I will have to decide whether I want to lengthen a coil frame, or convert a leaf one. I have got to finish my 4-door Burb project first (among others) before I dive into this one the rest of the way, so I am looking to the future at this point. So if you don't sell this one to somebody who really needs it, I would like you to at least keep me in mind. I will be coming that way for a conference in AUG with the Air Force, so swinging up to the panhandle would not be out of the question. Thanks for listening, Mike

Mike,

Where are you going to in FL? My frame already has coil springs. I could shorten the rear of the frame to accept the SWB if you wanted, but I would think that you would want to do it yourself so that you could match everything up. Are you interested in a cab? I lead on one that I'm looking at this weekend, it's actually a complete truck minus the bed. I should also have a SWB frame that is blasted and coated in POR 15, if you are interested. I've got enough stuff to make your trip worthwhile.
