Re: Anyone reproducing 67-72 Cabs?

I know the purists among us hate buying repo parts and would have a fit over considering buying a whole "new" cab. But, in some parts of the country, these original parts are impossible to find and shipping is cost prohibitive. Besides, it's your project, do what fits your needs and budget.

I am currently doing a project that looked great when all together and covered up, but after stripping her down... Yikes! Snow ball time. After doing inners, outers, lower A pillars, floor patches, patching lower cowl, etc... (and as usual, had to modify every patch panel I had bought).... I started thinking about the Dynacorn cabs.

I just happen to live about a mile from their production site in Camarillo CA and decided to stop by today. They don't sell direct to public but I was told you can pick up your purchase directly from them via authorized dealer saving on shipping. The salesman showed me two examples of the 67-72 cabs which were great looking.

These things were built as close to perfect as I have seen (definitely better than I can do). They even come with doors which were gapped perfectly ($9k range picked up). Ready to go, minus seam sealer and paint prep. By the way, they now make Blazers also!

If you have a rusty mess and want to save hundreds of hours in labor and all your free time searching for every part and piece needed to "restore" or resto-mod a 67-72 this is an option. Although it doesn't fit what I normally do, I would consider a Dynacorn cab for a future resto-mod as the quality was impressive.

Getting a title and vin numbers is not my debate. I was just considering how sweet it would be to avoid my next tetanus shot.

Happy building
