This may be a bit of an odd request but. I love these trucks. The 75-77 D/W series and the military variant the M880 are my favorite old 70's truck. I just think that the rounded sides to the fender and the whole truck gives off this muscular vibe to it. I have recently gotten hooked on the radio control rock crawler hobby, specifically what are called "scalers" which are 1/10th scale usually versions of 1:1 trucks setup for scale off roading.
Much to my dismay no one, and I mean no one seems to have ever made a model or body of this truck. This means if I want it bad enough I am going to have to attempt to build it from scratch, but I really don't want to do that without having proper dimensions off the real thing so I can do it right.
I have googled myself to death and can't find any dimension type schematics anywhere. I need basic things like overall length, wheelbase, track width, overall width, roof height. But also more detailed information like how large the roof actually is, how long the doors are etc so I can attempt to replicate it.
If any of you know where I might find this information I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you - Jason

you'd think you could see more of them in LA but no one seems to have one around for me to take my camera and tape measure to.
