so i have LONG loved this idea and have been seeing more and more of them on image searches. i even once found a thread of a guy who extended a '59, but wasn't real well documented and no clue where any more.

well last week i picked up a 1955 6400 with a grain body. i'm a 6'3 dude and i drive the thing with my shoulders on the back glass. ultimate idea is a flat bed to haul my jeep on while towing the airstream, but that is years away.

anyone out there know of a build thread? tips? anyone on here done this? just post a of a truck you love.

This is a link to one of the forum members 57 crew cab build http://s1356.photobucket.com/user/buggy5872/library/1957%20LCF%20Big%20Bertha . If you are looking for just an extension and not extra doors, you can check out the link in my signature.

yeah, that's the one! I actually talked to him about buying it, but wasn't able to figure a decent way to get it back to this side if the country.
