I've seen a bunch of them, but none of this vintage.

has to be custom for that era of Cheby, no crew was available, betcha you could find the build thread on the 67-72 Chevy Truck forum

Ford also used to make a crew cab in that vintage, would love that body on the newer drive train.

I met the builder today, nice guy. Impressive build. The headliner wasn't in so I could see the inner structure. Forgot to ask him about the frame.

Very sweet, never offered from GM but they should have. :sombrero:

Very, very cool. Would like it better in a SWB, but that's personal.

Why that would be a little slice of heaven right there.

I’ve seen that beautiful rig around the truck forums quite a bit. That guy did an outstanding and tasteful job with it.

While GM never offered a crew cab in that body style there were a few coach builds doing crew cab conversions back in the day but they were hideous looking. Check out these unfortunate mutts with 4 front doors. I can’t remember the name of the coach builder but they also did 6 and 8 door Suburban’s as well.

I had a 1970 that was built by a company in Grants Pass, OR. It started as a standard length K20 and they shortened the front of the box and added the rear cab extension, so it remained standard length and had a short box. It was only a two-door with a split front seat, and the passenger end of the seat folded forward for access to the back seat.

I LOVED that truck, but sold it about 25+ years ago and I'm still kicking myself. I managed to locate it again a couple of years ago, and one of these days I'm gonna pay the guy a visit and see if I can buy it back. It would make a great expedition rig.

Just one of several vehicles I've sold that I regret selling. Another was a 1976 FJ-40.
