I believer the low cab 36 and the 37 do share a couple things but not sure what.
There is a guy who sells wood kits but can't remember his name. I think he has a web site....KC Wood or something like that. Others may chime in. | | | | | Joined: Feb 2011 Posts: 583 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Feb 2011 Posts: 583 | KC Wood Mfg.

They had 3 hinges for the door. The last half 36 had a rounded top, 2 hinges and only 3 pieces of wood -- apiece behind the dash and one in each "A" pillar. I'm not familiar with the 37 but have heard there are differences--
KC Wood has wood kits( all precut and drilled). Pertty expensive but it will take a LOT of work to make your own.
Good luck. | | | | | Joined: Sep 2003 Posts: 1,820 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Sep 2003 Posts: 1,820 | No wood in the 37 cab and, even though the 37 cab looks like a 36 2nd cab in design and style, they are not the same as there are subtile differences between them.
