I recently picked up a 77 crew as a parts truck for my 76' build and i'm wondering how rare this thing is. Its an F37 so its an F350 2WD with a factory 460 w/air conditioning AND its a dually. I havent seen many like this on this thread or on the forum. Sooo.......... let me know, what you know. It also has both trim kits on it.
Dude you found what I am looking for... Got any pics????
Unfortunately for this one it was wayyyyy past restoration. People had tried repairs over the years involving rivets and old road signs. I hate taking these old beauty's off the road but I can at least say I took everything I could off of her for future use.

Hey crew cab junkies. I sold my white 73 cc last year and am looking to build another one now. I've purchased three trucks recently and I'm not sure which way to go with the combination of all three trucks. I like the 73-79 trucks but I know the 67-72 trucks are even more rare... and I like them just as well. I will be building a crew cab short bed 4x4 with a cummins in it. Here are the three trucks I have to start combining. Should I build a 70 crew cab or a 79 crew cab? Here are the pictures of what I have to work with.

I could use the 79 chassis and combine it with the 70 cab and 69 bed. That way I would have power disc brakes, power steering, dual fuel tanks, etc with the older body style. I'd like to hear your thoughts on which way would be best. Resale value always plays a role too.
Great project! I'm melting three trucks into one now. 73-79 f600's the bumps are cool but you may have an easier time finding parts for the 79. I think there may be a bigger fan base for them as well. So selling may be easier?? Any way you go there all bad! Go Diesel! Good luck.
Build a 70 AND a 79! I'd do the 70 first as you already have a parts truck for it and drive the 79 as you work on the 70. Finish the 70 and drive that as you build the 79.
No need to take one of them off the road permanently.
Been working on restoring a 75 crew cab and am now trying to figure out the headliner. Unfortunately I don't have any of the original headliner stuff, cab of the truck was stripped when I bought it.
I have been searching this forum and elsewhere on the internet for ideas and pictures but so far haven't figured out a good plan.
So my first problem is that I have never seen how the stock headliner on these trucks looks when installed - mine is the only crew cab of this era that I have ever seen in person and not too many people show pictures of the headliner details that I need. So I was hoping somebody here had some nice pictures of their stock headliner (front, back, center) that can at least show me what I am shooting for.
