Hi there,

I've inherited my father-in-laws (Langley Loafers founding member) Chevy 5400 COE project on a 1973 3/4 ton Chevy pickup chassis.

Cab has been extended a little but I want to extend it further and make it a 4 door.

At this point in time it has a mid-mounted 283ci engine but considering that needs a full rebuild, it might be easier to swap in a 350.

If anyone in British Columbia can recommend someone to help with the cab extension, I'd be most grateful for any recommendations.

Cheers
Graham

No recommendations here either, but welcome also. Lets see some pics of this truck. We all like eye candy.
