Yes I have been working on this for one year.
Funning thing before I started the project I was reading it could be done in just two weeks.
Maybe that was joke that i did not get.

Looks very nice! I'm in year #3 on mine. I probably could have cut cut 2-1/2 years from it if I didn't clean and paint 90% of everything that I have taken apart.

Chrysler lost it's bid to GM (the GM 3+3 model) in 1985 for a government contract to supply crew cab pick up trucks to the GSA and military applications. This is why you will find most Dodge crew cab conversions were once owned by the government.

Ditto on That Trebor.
I put new gaskets in the engine did the KDP new windshield all new fuzzies in the door glass power locks and windows went from a auto trans to a 5 speed. Cab lights I got into everything and
I used everything I could from the donor truck.
Sound control door seals still need carpet.
Got lucky the donor truck had a ton of new parts the owner had his own Napa store. Rust is what killed the donor truck body.

Sweet! Always fun to be done! I will move you to the completed list. What are you doing for fender badges? That was probably the one question I wrestled with the most - oh the little things.
