RHD DD 23 window Barndoor in the classic CB over SWR.
Lowered on a narrowed beam and rolling on chrome early fuches, 4 1/2's up front and deep 6's or 7's out back. (Mods that can easily get put back to stock someday)
Interior with lots of period accessories, and a few modern touches hidden from sight (heat/AC).

Would need a larger VW engine too, preferrably one modded so that it runs on water, as gas prices just keep going up! Very Happy

Not much to ask really. Wink

I have two of my three dream buses, the one I am missing is a 66 highroof panel walk thru dropped with safaris done in velvet green. If we are really dreaming I would make it a double door but I have yet to see that on a highroof yet, I'm sure it's out there somewhere. Oh, running discs, a decent engine, freeway flyer with a fifth gear. Cool

How about a bullet turn signal double cab slammed of course, with a walkthrough and the bed from a single cab?

I am curious, don't know much about the trucks, what is the difference between a single cab bed and a double cab one?

About 16" to18" in lenght maybe? Not to sure about the lenght but single cabs have a longer bed due to lack of the double cab lenght.
