Title: 73-87 Extended Cabs?
Post by: 69HemiGTX on December 28, 2006, 12:42:00 pm: What year was the extended cab offered for this body style? Now before you label me as a crackpot, I can say with true confidence that I have seen one. I've been messing around with cars and trucks for over twenty-five years, so I know what I saw. Believe me, I did a double-take and said "WTH?" when I saw it. A farmer passed me in a brown extended cab "rounded style" truck in western Oklahoma one day while I was going home with an S10 in tow. I wanted to follow him to get a closer look and possibly buy it, but he went straight when I had to turn. I haven't seen it or another one since.

I am guessing by your user mane you have a Hemi GTX. I had a 70 440 Road Runner back about 7 years ago.

Interesting. an extended cab crew cab. How would one label that RPO? (ECCC, LWB, DRW)
