Hey Dino, I purchased my crew before I started my research and found your truck and I was like that is what I am talking about love what you have done with it and the article in street trucks was real nice.
Did I get this right the guy you got the cab from cut in the big back window?
That is the only thing I would like to chang on my cab it has a small bk window It looks like it was probably stamped to have either small or large I would love to know more about what he did if I understood your 1st post right.

preacherman thanks buddy! And nice work on your ride so far, my truck was also a small window and was converted over to a big wind , which on a c/c look better to me .there are many ways to do the converson, mine was done with a big back window inner panel(donor skin) and trimmed outer skin, hope that made since, anything i can help ya with or my resorces let me know kat! Dino

Preacherman5555 · 02-13-2010, 04:02 PM

Thanks I know where there is as big back window that I can get the inner skin out of thats what I was thinking they did good to know I was on the right track I have to cut the front nose cone off of the cab from the same truck since mine is rusted out so i will get that at the same time. I agree with you on the big back window I like the look better myself. Were did you get your headers at?

GMCMG · 02-13-2010, 05:26 PM

Dino, I am super jealous. I don't know how you found something so nice, and great work! Wish I had your luck! Btw, my first born isn't due until August, but when he/she comes I'll trade you for your truck!!! (don't tell my wife)
