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.

Thanks,
Doug

I took the rear section of trim from a reg cab and modified it to use in place of the center plastic. To me the factory plastic looked cheap and out of place, don't know why they didnt do something like what I came up with.

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.
