I cant seem to find any 73-80 crew cab short beds anywhere? I cant be the only person that doesnt want to switch to the newer front clip right?

nobody?

I have never seen one but would love to . If you do keep yours with the original front end , keep the trim . It is the only real thing that will set it apart . I would love to see one done in an orange/white combo with a saddle interior like my 73 Super Cheyenne was , only with four factory low back buckets . 6.0L/4L80 combo and tucking a 20x15 rear billet wheel and Mickey Thompson tire .
If orange/white isnt your thing then wrap your mind around an Ochre/white short crew with all the trim .
Damn , I need to look for a crew cab . Anyone want to but a truck or two ?

I think the two tone would defintely help the look, orange white would look pretty cool too. I was planning on a complete 2 tone color change but after seeing jared78's truck I think the stock color might look pretty cool.

Definitely keep it stock looking with all the trim!
How's the frame shortening going?

My engine/tranny guy still hasnt finished it yet but he called to day and said I could pick it up tomorrow at noon. Frame should be done by the end of the month, then it should be off to paint (money permitting)

I saw that the other day and saved it ha ha, I was never a fan of that color or the wheels and now I'm thinking of the wheels for my K5 and the color for my crew cab. Is it the same color as Jared78's? Looks to be a shade or two darker
