Xander_42 Posted December 2, 2010 Report Share Posted December 2, 2010 Damnit! I want it, that's exactly what I would want to start with for a 620, and a good runner at that price. I want it. Alas, I don't have the time or money to do it. Oh well, somebody should pick this thing up and either part it, or fix it. I EVEN LIKE THE COLOR, AND I DON'T KNOW WHY?!?!?!?! http://seattle.craig...2090388258.html How hard would it be to source a new roof (should be able to get one at a J/Y, I always used to see 620s at Pull-A-Part), and how tough is it actually to weld a new roof on? Anybody done it before? I mean, I'm a pretty decent welder/fabricator, but something like this, I'm not sure... I think I could do it, but would I trust it? I don't know. Quote Link to comment
Creepy Cruiser Posted December 2, 2010 Report Share Posted December 2, 2010 It would be easier to just swap on another cab and box. They go on and off so easy. I don't know how many of them are over there, but over here in eastern WA, there are a ton in the pull and save type yards. Quote Link to comment
Xander_42 Posted December 2, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 2, 2010 ... oh right... it's a truck, facepalm. Would that really be easier though? How much work is it to do that, isn't a lot of stuff attached to the cab: wiring, doors, interior, dash, master cylinders, pedals, steering, seams almost like it'd be less work to just do the fab, but then again, I personally don't really ever fear jumping into welding projects with both feet, but tearing apart a working car is something I've always hated doing. Also, dumb question, but the term box refers to the bed right? Quote Link to comment
dedrick Posted December 2, 2010 Report Share Posted December 2, 2010 Buy it, and make it into a roadster truck. Quote Link to comment
bananahamuck Posted December 2, 2010 Report Share Posted December 2, 2010 That truck is local to me and it is alot more messed up than pictures show... alot more Quote Link to comment
Xander_42 Posted December 2, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 2, 2010 Alright, thanks for the warning. There's another one for cheaper, that I'm gonna see about. Also looks like it could be less work to get driveable. http://seattle.craigslist.org/see/cto/2091667510.html Quote Link to comment
