OJH,
yes...I'm ditching everything up to this point and keeping the cab and grill. Seems a shame and if I could find another cab I would just sell what I have as a roller but I cant find one close to me (within 250 miles). I'm going to do something very similar to the picture I posted in post #4. My preliminary measurement will have me narrowing the cab 7 inches, 6" off the top, 6" off the bottom and I'll be shortening the grill shell 6" but I think I can keep the Chevy V and just take it out of the middle. I like the 20's or 22's the fella used on his but there isnt enough tire to suit me. Dont get me wrong, I think the low pro's have their place on certain cars but too little of tire just doesnt look right to me. I want at least 4 inches of tire sitting on top of my rims. lol's. I'll also be bobbing the frame just like his. Open rear...no bed. The only thing that bugs me is the only 18" rims I'm finding are the old gasser style 10 spoke fronts and I just cant find any big wheels for the rear that look right with the gassers. I photo shopped a 36 cab onto one of the fella's pics. It would look similar, going for the cantilever....really like that. More..........Do not lift a rock only to drop it on your own foot
That is terrible, sad to hear about him.
