61TWUK · 09-29-2009, 07:31 PM

Driver's and pass extended door

Are you asking how much it will take to complete?
That is going to be very subjective

if you are asking what it is worth in its current state.... You need to be a supporting member to post a WIW

please share

personally I would tell them to keep the 90 frame and use an older frame.
That being said, I wouldn't give more than $1000 for it all and less depending on the shape of all the sheet metal. You have to figure out if that will get you ahead. Were the cabs joined properly or are you going to have to rework it?

Joe I sent you a PM also...

Joemomma1 · 09-29-2009, 11:05 PM

Cant say Id pay much for that piece. Joe is very generous to offer a G for it.

joe231 · 09-29-2009, 11:27 PM

you are probably right

joe231 · 09-29-2009, 11:28 PM

the more I look at it the more I see that is wrong. the floor looks awful (probably needs to be ripped out and done right or it will be a rust bucket in a few years, there isn't any rear rockers, the roof is gonna be a pain......I'm not saying it can't be done.....just that it still needs lots of work

**Bugeyev8** · 09-30-2009, 03:11 AM

looks like a crude job and a long given up on project, I would not mess with it for any cost, if iit was done wrong..there may not be much left when you try to repair it, I think you would be better off getting 2 fresh cabs and start from scratch

61TWUK · 10-07-2009, 03:11 PM

well i went and saw this truck in person... its a starter project.... for someone I might pass on it...

On a side note these guys have a TON of stuff: trucks, hoods, fenders.... they have subs, crew cabs, bbw's, sbw's, fleetsides, and steps man like i said before you think you might need it they probably have it...

**Clyde65** · 10-07-2009, 03:15 PM

They are in a little town named Leonard TX, and yes they won't part with the Crew cabs .... but I thought I would share...

WOW! After seeing these pics, I'm really glad I didnt buy that thing, then drive 1700 miles to find a giant mess, then drive home without it. I've bought that thing 4 times and had the deal go south in one way or another everytime, blessing in disquise.
