Buried way in the back of this article, it tells about the future plans of the company...... Produce 67-68 camaro convertibles, and then " the next priority is to produce complete cabs for 47-53 chevy 5 window trucks, followed by 67-68 mustang fastbacks"  New cabs will soon be available, whoohoooo!! be safe folks

I wonder what it would cost to repair the whole thing. | | | | | Joined: Apr 2001 Posts: 439 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Apr 2001 Posts: 439 | The goldenleafauto ad for the cabs was in a trader magazine. It said "coming soon". --shrug-- thats all I know. | | | | | Joined: May 2005 Posts: 8,878 . | | . Joined: May 2005 Posts: 8,878 | New fiberglass ones can be found here http://www.usbody.com/ I don't think they are a good replacement though. Looks like alot of work, and then it still is not the same as an original steel one. For the money and time, and work that would have to go in to buying and finishing one you could buy very very nice original and have it cleaned, fixed, and painted for probably the same money. And the you would have the real thing. | | | | | Joined: Mar 2005 Posts: 267 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Mar 2005 Posts: 267 | has anyone used any of the repo panels or doors that is being advertised as i would think that the cab would be made out of parts. i think Brothers and chevy duty has the piecs to assemble the cab (or most of it). i noticed jim carter did not have any of these parts in their web catalog so i called and asked why not. they said the sheet metal was too thin and they did not want to sell it. so i was curiuos it any body had any experience they would like to share tom
