I just saw a '81-'87 Extended Cab, Long Bed, 4x4! - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

'65 Super Sport 327 700R4 · 05-01-2001, 04:57 PM

It was the real thing, I have never seen or heard of any '73-'87 Chevy/GMC truck with an Extended Cab. It wasn't a 2 door conversion from a 4 door, it was the real thing. And the beauty part is it was a long bed, 4x4! Ho many of these were built? Have you ever seen one?

Thanks,
Erik

Hmmmm well they aren't really common here but I see some every day without looking for them. Sure wouldn't want to have to park those things in some places but they sure look cool. Happy Trucking. CoryM

Sorry guys I mean its a 2 door ex-cab. I messed up and said a 4-door conversion, I guess I wasn't thinking. I guarantee you don't see these things very often. Really is a cool looking truck. I will go and fix the original post, make it say what I really mean.

p.s. By the way it was a 3/4 ton.

A guy I know here built one from a 77 shortbox. The first time I saw it I swore that there was no way it wasn't a factory truck. It is easily the best Ex-cab conversion I have ever seen. I will try to talk him into letting me take some pics of it to post. He may actually drive it now that the weather is nice, but I don't think it's seen daylite for at least 3 years.

Go to www.classicalgasstation.com and click on the Chevy section. There is an 85 conversion for sale there. Cool and cheap. Somebody buy it!!!!
