Re: Square body extended cabs
This one has been at a used car lot near my house for several years. I can't believe no one has snatched it up. I noticed it turned up on Craigslist a few days ago. I would like to have it, but I have enough projects. I remember seeing a few of these in the late 80's, but it was uncommon to see them even back then. This is the first one I have seen in person in probably 20 years.

Re: Square body extended cabs
Isn;t that red one A 89 ? if it is it would not be rare you could order them from the factory.

Re: Square body extended cabs
Was there ever a square body ext. cab from GM? I thought they were all conversions.

Re: Square body extended cabs
GM didnt build any square body extended cabs. The last one built in the aftermarket world in the regular extended cabs have all been 87's. I know of one 88 and one 89 Extended crewcabs. Due to a couple of trucks I have looked at in person, I believe there were two companies building them. Bobs84got me paying more attention when I saw his, and saw another one that comfirmed the same thing. It seems CVI and a company named Stagecoach both built the extended cabs. They are built basically the same way, but the Stagecoach trucks have a smaller rear window, and more bondo in the cab than the CVI trucks. The rear florrs were built a little different, but the extended cab dimensions are similar except the rear windows.

It is an 87 with a 91 burb clip on the front. It also has had the rear side windows replaced with S-10 ex-cab units. |

Re: Square body extended cabs

Re: Square body extended cabs
Theyre begging to be replaced. I can hear them from here.
|
Re: Square body extended cabs
Is it just me, or does that high top look like a 3/4 ton? BTW, I want that rear bumper.
|
Re: Square body extended cabs
It is a 3/4 ton so you eyes are not deceiving you

Well it's mine now, I traded my 79 Malibu wagon for it even though the wagon runs and the truck does not. I can get another wagon, but not a truck
like this one. It runs on straight propane, if it did run. It has a BB396 but originally had a 6.2 diesel. As far as the cab conversion goes I can't find any company logo in any of the usual places. It was done well so it must have been a conversion company, and not a backyard job. I'm still not real sure how to get into the back seat without hurting myself. Taillights seem to be done well, without much filler. Has P.M. trailer lights. The tailgate is all steel with latch moved to the inside but missing handle. There is filler coming loose on top but at least it's not rusting. I plan to put a stock 350 in it and use the propane system too. It will be perfect cause all my buddies can get in to ride around or haul cars. |
Re: Square body extended cabs
Congradulations, I am so gload you bought that one. I have been trying to figure out how to buy it myself, but really didnt need it. Keep me updated on the progress and join my site if you dont mind so the others can keep track as well.

Re: Square body extended cabs
Is that a 88-98 tailgate on there?

Re: Square body extended cabs
I love seeing these trucks. Nice CL score on the blue one heavychevy79!
There used to be a Grey 86 ext 2wd half ton in Havana, IL when I was a teenager running around (97-99). Always told the guy I would buy it when he was finished with it, about 3 years later I saw it smashed and sitting on a trailer headed for the chipper..... There is a ext cab dually around Peoria, IL. It is lowered and has a very tastefull paint job of Black and silver stripes with some orange in there some where. If I see it around again, I'll be sure to snap photo's. It was for sale a while back for like $7500 but I just had no need for it. Very cool thread, lots of neat pictures! |
