Here are a few new pics of the crew cab its a long project and very hard to get every thing to line up. It seems the fact of the matter is that well, im used to working on older cars and trucks but things that can be made to line up "perfect" spend of few hours on the door of a 67 firebird and when your done it looks new. Spend of few hours on the door of an old army truck and it looks as good as new also. only problem im running into is that aperently no one put the care in the governments 6 by trucks that GM put into their cars. Right now im having a tough time living with the "thats as close as its goona get unless i start over" thing. BUT none the less no one will notice anyway. Just keep telling myself its better than it was when it was new....
But the part im looking for ideas on is whats BEHIND the cab. I think my final decision is to chop the frame and add what i added to the cab in an effort to maintain box space and proportions. The other idea i had what to hack off one axle and make a 4 by. or cut 18 inches off the front of the box to make the front of the center tire even with the front of the box(or back of cab how ever you think of it) I do kind of like the idea of a full box to make a bigger camper in PLUS its less work than wacking a foot an a half off the box AND adding into the frame.... options options options
