denmarkboy Posted October 11, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 11, 2014 moved some stuff around so i can strip the the cab off the frame . 1 Quote Link to comment
Jester Posted October 12, 2014 Report Share Posted October 12, 2014 Cool idea. I am dreaming of doing a ZX interior on my truck. I picked up another frame and cab to use as a mock up for the front section. The cab and frame are both from KC's. I only need to keep the front sections. Are you interested in trading some interior parts? I was going to cut the cab about 2" up the A pillar and just behind the front seat mounts. Frame would be cut just behind the trans mount. If you interested, I could deliver them for beer and a chance to see your stack of trucks. 2 Quote Link to comment
denmarkboy Posted October 12, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 12, 2014 Thanks , I know it's not pc around here to cut stuff up, and I get that . And some trucks are worth saving , I am using stuff that was left for dead or was in route to the crusher . As for the cab and frame stuff , I am always using stuff like that . And I could use the kc cab back half , middle of the door back . Beer would definitely be on me . And barter is always better Quote Link to comment
]2eDeYe Posted October 12, 2014 Report Share Posted October 12, 2014 Better the stuff gets used, one way or another, than tossed aside as trash. :) 2 Quote Link to comment
