Wow...would love to see some pics...get a photobucket account if you don't already have one and throw some pics up here

 

I want to convert my 1975 CrewCab to a manual transmission. I need the tail housing for a NP 435 and possibly the tail shaft of a highboy transmission.
Anybody have these parts available or have a contact that might have any or all of what it will take to convert it?

 

old crew cab. was on a std. cab frame. bobbed bed. body was to big for wheelin, did great but just to much body. i kind of regret scrapping the body was in fantastic shape no rust only a couple dings. i wish i could of swapped the body onto another frame and used it for a daily driver.

 

anybody got a crewcab on here for sale around florida ive got a fully restored 78 supercab f350 4x4 might consider trade or partial trade according to the condition thanks my number is 813 787 0062 couldnt figure out how to post pics but i can email them thanks

 

78_F150 -- Looks good, I don't see anything wrong, not bad at all. I like the long bed (have two trucks in this configuration, including a 79 crew) but lots of folks like a short bed. yours doesn't look "too" short so I say looks great.

 

Personally I really like the looks of the super short bed. I bet it helped with maneuvering and fitting in parking spaces etc. While I'd love to do this to my '74 I like the function of the bed too much to do so.

 

I am considering converting my 77 4wd crew from manual to auto, but I am out in NJ

 

the last time i went wheelin, it accidentally rolled backwards down a hill with nobody in it and it smashed into a bank. it bent the frame pretty bad so i got a new frame, but then decided to go with a new body as well. i ended up just takin the axles motor ect ect out of it and dropped it off at the junkyard. should have kept the cab but i didnt have anywhere to keep it or do anything with it.

 

looking for a cab for a 74-79 crewcab in good condition if any of u guys can help out thanks keith 813 787 0062

 

Thanks, Lostinfords
It would cost us too much to ship or I would trade with ya. Wyoming to NJ would be a fortune for sure. Still looking locally within a couple hundred miles. Distracted lately with the new FE 418 build but can't wait to install the NP435. Heck I'd even put it in for ya If you were closer.

 

Picked up a 77 Ford Crew Cab, short box, 2wd. $800
Picked up a 93 Dodge W350 4x4 w/ a 94 12V Cummins, 5 speed, dually.

Set 77 Crew on 93 Running gear.
60K miles later a few different stages of build, ie, NV4500, AAM 11.25,
Built 12v Cummins P7100 pump, stroke intercooler, hick front toolbox bumper,lockers front and rear, etc.
