Re: CrewCab thoughts

Just my 2 cents....since I know what it is like to build a 72' crewcab with a fourth door from what I understand you are wanting to do, using a later model truck and putting 72' skins on it, it would be cheaper and easier to build a 72' or be put in a hypnotic state to think you are seeing a 72'. But seriously before I start a project I do a extensive amount of research and what you are proposing would require more work than to do the difficult work of a 72'.

Do you have a build thread, or pictures of how you stretched the cab? How did you decide the length of the rear doors? Did you cut down a suburban?
