Although I am a die hard 67-72 guy, the original crew cabs are much cleaner in this body style.

Hello I remember meeting you about 5 years ago.I came to your house and talked with you about your truck, because I also want to build a crew cab. You use to have a cummins diesel in that 65 correct? I don't know if you remember me I was driving the black dodge pickup and we talked about using firewall and floor pans. That is so awesome that you actually made it work! Pm me your number again I'd love to come down and look and talk about your truck.

Re: 60-66 crew cabs or extended cabs
 
does anyone know where to find any cc's. i am seriously liking these and like 65 crew, I have grandkids and need a back seat and have a teenage daughter that is always having someone over for the day or weekend. I have a family van, but need and looking for a very good ba crew cab or possibly a suburban. On these cc's, does anyone know the dimensions for wheelbase dimensions, which later model 4x4 frames will slide under. Is anyone familiar with the 305 v6. the one i required has been sitting for couple years and after i got the bad gas out and no longer have to prime the carb to start, but it has no power. won't pull itself downhill, checked the points and dwell, plugs look good. Any help or advice would be apprecieated.

The Crews were mostly the same WB as a long bed truck, that is why most have the beds cut short in the front. If you can find a crew, any crew, your looking in the $5k+ range and then you have to restore/rebuild it. There was one on the Evilbay site for $69K a while back...very nice truck.

Here is my little extended cab, we should have her in primer in two weeks. Stuff is just tacked together right now, we ended up using two sets of doors and two cabs to make it.

just think of the country that you would see and all of the trucks and people along the way. it would be like an adventure and then you could write a book about it. that would cover all your expensives

Done the drive a few times. I did pro rodeo for 6 years (bullriding/bronc riding).. Even made it to Calgary once. Getting there is easier than the return trip cost wise. If somebody was coming this way though...Ill keep it in mind. I use to drive from Virginia to Montana in 32hr straight through. Was a rough trip...several times
