from what padresag has told me they are the same size as normal, but have a differentwindow frame. I'll see exactly here shortly when I have them in hand.

padresag · 03-26-2009, 02:00 AM

the rear doors are exactly the same width as the frt doors, 40 1/2 ". I will take some pics for you guys in the next couple of days as i pack them up for shipment

Sounds like a good plan and some nice donors

jonzcustomshop · 03-26-2009, 07:17 AM

this first pic is of your doors and frames still on the sub.
#2 is a home built with full size doors.
#3 is a photo chop by (longhair?) from the photoshop forum thread crewcab II it also seems to have full size doors.

sailed2japan · 03-26-2009, 11:22 PM

Awesome inspiration! I wish I were good enough at photo shop to be able to draw mine out the way it's going to be when it's done. Anybody wanna help me out with that?

sailed2japan · 05-26-2009, 04:53 AM

Well, I've spent a long time getting nothing done on this. I'm waiting for my spot to open up at the auto shop on base. Once I'm in there I'll be getting at it hot and heavy. Until then I'm just going to collect my "Junk" until my old lady threatens to kill me in my sleep.

**Captainfab** · 05-26-2009, 11:39 PM

Cool.....I'll be right here waiting.......

sams60gmc · 05-27-2009, 12:27 AM

Sounds like a killer build man! Can't wait to see some progress pics!!!

Blue666 · 05-27-2009, 08:21 PM

Sounds like a killer plan for a killer project. I'll watch for up dates.

Have you considered possibly making a 1964 version of the Avalanche?

70 Suburban · 05-27-2009, 08:23 PM

like this

Blue666 · 05-27-2009, 09:33 PM

That would be it!!! Extended fenders to cover really wide meat would be way cool!!

jmedero · 05-27-2009, 10:52 PM

I was thinking of a version of a 1966 caddy ext. Not a crew cab, just a real clean single cab with a caddy interior and ext styling

sailed2japan · 06-06-2009, 04:00 AM

The c/c build is enough work as it is!

sailed2japan · 08-04-2009, 03:51 PM

As you can tell I am WAY behind on getting this build together. I was wondering if there is anybody who would like to help me get this thing together. I'm looking for someone who knows what they're doing and would like to make a little extra money on the side. I don't have any idea what this would cost so if you're interested let me know.

70 Suburban · 08-04-2009, 04:54 PM

WELL ALTHOUGH I AM IN THE MIDDLE OF MINE. I AM AT A FINANCIAL STOPPING POINT. I COULD DO YOURS IN THE MEAN TIME. HOW ABOUT GIVE ME A CALL OR PM ME YOUR # AND ILL GIVE YOU A CALL, i AM AN ASE MASTER TECH ALSO A PLATINUM I-CAR COLLISION TECH. NOT TO MENTION HAVE BEEN DOIN THIS FOR ABOUT 10 YEARS ON MY OWN.

70 Suburban · 08-04-2009, 07:43 PM

by the way I was on the rock (Oki)for a couple of years. met my wife there (yeah i know I broght one home, but I couldnt ask for a better wife)I was an 84000 HM medic for the core just call me DOC...jk no no dont.. call me ROD

sailed2japan · 10-01-2009, 01:08 PM

Well, I think I'm gonna have to let this one go. I've decided to sell this little project and move on. I realized that I don't have the time to do this or the money to buy the right tools. if anyone is interested in getting this thing done let me know.

70 Suburban · 11-02-2009, 08:41 AM

wow im sorry I havent been more help.Im in the same boat.. time is not my friend...

what are you wanting for this.. and please list what comes with

c10addict · 11-02-2009, 02:13 PM

Watchin this one!! great ideas!

70 Suburban · 11-02-2009, 02:21 PM

Im still in the middle of mine. But with your parts i could finish

sailed2japan · 11-06-2009, 07:18 AM

I think if I press forward with this I'm going to make it a long bed dually and slam it. I had a notion for a minute to get a C60 and build it into a Crewcab, but after much arguing with my wallet I figure I can get a pair of C20 frames to weld together and make a frame and weld some step side fenders to a lwb fleet bed.

Edit: If there is enough frame available and I have the enthusiasm I may also make an extended cab to the crew so I can have a turning radius measured in yards.

70 Suburban · 11-06-2009, 09:13 AM

Well looks like im in too then..

jonzcustomshop · 11-06-2009, 10:14 AM

A photo chop for inspiration...
