5 window Task force on the bay - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Thought this was interesting. I've only seen one other 5 window TF and thought it would be cool to put the big truck cab on a 1/2 ton frame.

here's the project

whoa, never seen one of those

INteresting bunch of parts thrown together. Anyone getting it should plan on lower fender repair, cab corners and maybe the door sills. Also spending some time getting the pieces fitted together, notice the fenders are not really attached to the cab. Normal stuff for these builds but seller makes it sound like its not that big of a deal.

I dont know too much about the larger trucks of that time but it looks like that cab and bullnose front end thats in the bed came off of some dump truck type. If anyone has some pics of those trucks lets see em!

I don't have the pic anymore, but you are correct. I think some of the hoods are spit and hinged in the middle also.
