Message: [QUOTE="Hotrodtractor, post: 410838, member: 25"] A long time ago Dad had a LoPro Chevy cab stretched.... basically cut the rear of the cab off, bent up side panels to match the body lines and reinstalled the rear of the cab... basically like a super long 2 door extended cab.... [IMG]http://sphotos-a.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-snc6/262016_10150200410523038_6910830_n.jpg[/IMG] The only reason I got rid of that truck was it was gutless. I wish I had kept it and installed a good engine under the hood and kept it for pulling trailer. It was as nimble as a CCLB dually pickup with better brakes and load carrying capacity - but it had a ****ty 3116 CAT hooked to a 6 speed.... Anyway - I know you don't want to talk MDT - but extending the cab is not hard - I've also shortened and lengthened a few truck frames for various purposes - I have a 1985 Chevy CCSB sitting here that I shortened for someone a couple of years ago that needs a new owner - I started with a CCLB dually - "Z" cut the frame in two spots and slid everything together. With the bed off, fuel tanks off, etc.... I cut it, aligned it, welded it all back together in about 4 hours total. I used some of the original frame material from the chunk that was removed as gussets on the inside of the frame. [/QUOTE]
