Love the detailed explanation on the metal work and layering the sheet metal. I would love to make a ext cab or crew cab tri-five chevy truck

I think a complete new cab is available now, just swap your serial number

[@hillbilly59apache59]

Great any idea what company could provide one

[@bridchvtruck568]

[@motoxchris6436]

Nice work ..wish I could go hog wild on my 55 like you have on this one I have the same repairs on mine other than the back window wish you could have got some video of the rust repair on the upper cowl and kick panel that's my biggest project on my cab sure would be nice to know of any issues with new kick panels before I cut into it

[@JoDaddysGarage]

+motoxchris It was definitely a big job. I have yet to see this truck in its finished state.

[@taylorh3930]

O boy with all that work you midas well just buy the brand new reproduction cab they are making.

[@spencermcswain9348]

Im getting ready to start the big back glass panel conversion. I was curious after everything was finished up. Did you have any issues with the fitment of the glass once it was completed??

[@JoDaddysGarage]

I didn’t install the glass. But the man who did didn’t seem to have a problem. There is a follow up video on this truck showing it all together.

[@JoDaddysGarage]

Yeah, that timeline came and went. Too many other projects interfered. Now we just say it will be ready Tuesday.... Didn't say which Tuesday....

[@andrianarisonnjato1667]

I'm curious about the suspension part... would you mind sharing. a fellow from Madagascar.

[@JoDaddysGarage]

What are you curious about? This video is from several years ago. I can try to answer specific questions. Nice to see a viewer from Madagascar.

[@jayg3559]

Great job! I just bought a 56 Cameo truck that needs new sheet metal and would like to know where the best place to buy body panels. Where did you get yours? Thanks for the video. JG

[@JoDaddysGarage]

These panels were Goodmark. But I would look at auto metal direct. AMD

[@jayg3559]

@@JoDaddysGarage Thanks. I appreciate you sharing your skills with us rookies! JG

[@markbarber3572]

Could you please tell me who makes that kit?

[@JoDaddysGarage]

I think it was goodmark.

[@elgranfarmer7813]

Could you share list of parts

[@JoDaddysGarage]

This was so long ago. I don’t have a list.

[@hillbilly59apache59]

Looks awsome👍👍where do get your body parts

[@JoDaddysGarage]

I think it was NPD, but I don't remember for sure. I may have mentioned it in one of the videos.

[@danmccormick7162]

Where did you get your steps? What brand are they? Thanks

[@JoDaddysGarage]

Hmm... I think all the sheet metal came from LMC.

[@jesserobles3255]

Who's replacement panels did you use?

[@JoDaddysGarage]

I think they were goodmark.

[@wmw-hv5cx]

Are you still doing restoration's? I am in Ga

[@JoDaddysGarage]

Yes. One at a time. Mostly mustangs.

[@Lore-wv5mt]

I wish u were my nieghhor...🤗😘

[@edducati]

So how much would this conversion cost? Small to big window.

[@JoDaddysGarage]

Good question. We were doing the whole truck, so I don't have a breakdown. Not even sure what the pieces cost these days.

[@edducati]

Jo Daddy's Garage the parts are around $700 for the inner, outer, and supports. Just wondered how many hours you would charge, I’d almost ship my 55 to you to have done. Of course would end up being a whole paint job then. Lol thing is I’m in California, the land of expensive and too many regulations, water based paint etc.
