Here's a few pics of my 78. I bought it new . Its been thru a few changes the most noticeable one being the half cab. I stretched the 45 cab 2". The roof is from a 40 . I then had it Linexed inside and out. The tub was rhinolined. It has an OME 2" lift , Aussie lockers front and rear, 4 wheel disks and a 350 chevy .

Damn, I usually find that a lot of 'projects' end up kind of ghetto, but I think that rig looks freakin' nice! Really great job, well done.

shotgun.......looks SWEET....I like a lot, looks great how the black of the cab ties in with the black rear flares, side steps and rims

Thanks for the nice responces. The seats are from an Izusu Trooper , Its important when you are using a half cab to find seats with a thin back every inch counts. the stock seats backs were just to thick and pushed me toward the steering wheel. I made the lower wall in three pieces. It just bolts together and if I handn't rhinolined it you could just unbolt it and take it out. I ran the unmodified 45 top for several years and there was never really a comfortable sitting position. Stetching it 2" was perfect for me I'm 6'1 and it feels great now.
