Factory Extended Cab?
I've seen a few of these over the years and always assumed they were "owner-built", but can one of the board experts verify? Thanks,

Re: Factory Extended Cab?

Re: Factory Extended Cab?
That extra cab window just doesn't fit with the rest of the truck... However, I'll back that up by saying whoever did that job did about a MILLION times better job than I could have done!

Re: Factory Extended Cab?
Sure looks like it. appears like he wanted to put moulding on it and maybe he can't find any or hasn't finished

Re: Factory Extended Cab?
There was a couple of coach companies that modified trucks for the railroad and utility companies. Not factory by a long shot, but there are a few of them still around. WES

Re: Factory Extended Cab?
I saw one here a while back referenced as a railroad truck and it too had a strange back window. Any idea how I would check to see if this is one of them?

Re: Factory Extended Cab?
I don't know if there is a way or not. However you should be able to do a search of these boards and I know there have been several threads about them. A couple even have pictures of the brochures. WES

Re: Factory Extended Cab?
The top of the rear cab is definitely Ford in that pic.
