stretch cab 56's

There was a couple of good threads on here of guys building stretched cab 56's , but i can't seem to find them now .
I know of an old friend that wants to build one here in Aus , and if i can find the threads on here it may be of assistance to him .
Or if anyone has any pics , post them up please .
I've sent him a message to come here and have a look , not sure if he's a member here yet , but hopefully he will join up if he's not .

Dave Kindig did a stretch on a 53-56 cab. Was an episode a few seasons ago. I think it's the same one described here

I'm quite sure there was a stretch one on here but I wouldn't have a clue when or where to look for it .

I saved a panel truck roof thinking it would be good for a stretch truck. Not that I’ll ever do it though
