I definitely appreciate any and all comments, but after I got the stretch finished and painted a bit more, I think I'll skip any porthole windows....
Well it has been a whole winter, but I did resolve the "Where to slice" question. I will start posting some more pics as the project moves on, but...
Hadn't mentioned it before, because I didn't think it would be too relevant to the thread, but..... I'm actually going to put a flip ball...
The frame is not the problem, I have to build an entire new bed anyway. Mine is a Pick up Model 201.
We wanted a camper that I could tow behind my 36 ford, see around it and over the top going down the road without extended mirrors, weigh under...
That's what I'm hoping. Doesn't look out of proportion to me and maybe enough room to be comfortable.
Rot & Kustom just did some photo shop for me. Boy are you guys great. I'm thinking the 4" gets the most room without chopping anything else. I'll...
Just saw the same ads in facebook myself! Thanks. I'm not sure if the big truck cabs are the same as the pick up.
Wow, just found this thread. You guys are good at this stuff. Could someone just extend this cab for two views? From the front edge of the tape...
I spent the last hr or so looking at Scotty 449's wild build on I believe a model 411 Diamond T big truck where he made a double cab. I think it...
Went back looking at some pics I took when bringing this thing home, hoping I could show some relation of the original PO engine placement. Still...
Moving the cab back is also moving the wedge shape back from where the fenders align with the cab. There is significant wedge to the hood front to...
When I purchased the truck in Pa, the 6.0 w/4L80e was already mounted in the frame. Problem was the PO left absolutely no room for a radiator, the...
I'm thinking about 1"?
I think a second cab is out of the question and I don't think my skill set lends itself to me doing doors, etc. I've only seen maybe five pics...
Thanks themoose! Is it stretched in this pic? I can't tell a difference other than the tape gone. I think I have to go at least 4" to get a...
I did blow up that picture and do an outline drawing and then expand it to see what it would look like. It reminds me of the much older semi cabs...
I haven't started my build thread yet, but I do have a technical question before I touch the cab on my 38 Diamond T. I know that there is plenty...
I worked for the Zimmerman brothers at their speed shop in Greensburg,In. for the last 2 yrs before they retired. I was fortunate enough to have...
Have checked out the forums many times in the past years for info, ideas, etc., and decided it's time to get personal. No one told me when I...
