Anybody ever seen one or used one??? Mine is beyond repair and the best replacement I found went away when the shop went out of business. All 4 doors hinges repair panels etc gone  looking at the complete repop assy. Any suggestions? | | | | | Joined: Sep 2006 Posts: 2,393 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Sep 2006 Posts: 2,393 | The repops are truly expensive. Keep an eye out for a complete truck with a decent cab for sale. Ask around. That would be way cheaper.

Your cab looks restorable to me, but will require a lot of tedious time and some skill in replacing the hinge pillars and the other body work. Meanwhile, I would look for another cab, either Craigslist or Ebay, or some of the local swap meets around North Texas, as it would be cheaper than the $8-9000 range I think the repop cabs are selling for. There's a big auto junkyard down around Belton, wanna say it's Little Valley auto ranch, check with them. Good Luck to you.
