So one of my big dreams has been getting my hands on a Slick crew cab. I’ve been looking for one on and off for years. Lately I’ve been looking harder. All the Slick crews I see are pretty rusty after all these years. I got to thinking about building one myself. I have a lead on several cabs in very good condition I could combine. However that’s an intimidating amount of work. Than it occurred to me. The 67 and up floor pans are the same aren’t they... they made more crew cabs in those years too. What if you took a 67 crewcab and reskined the body structure and doors with Slick parts? I wounder just how close they are? And if I’m just plane crazy for thinking it might work!

 

OK so I've looked into this a bit more and can see a lot of structural differences between 66 and 67. Door are considerably different looks like as well back of cab and roof line. But perhaps starting with a 67 crew floorpan and perhaps the cowl section would work.

 

I would think the floor would be one of the easier parts to do if building a crew cab out of two standard cabs. Plus, a good bump side crew cab, with a good floor, is probably in almost as much demand as a slick crew cab.

 

Yea I'm beginning to see that. Like I said it was just a dream I guess....

 

How much you willing to pay for a slick crew cab project?

 

Depends on how big a project and how far away.
