    Just need a good picture of your truck or the truck you are thinking about. Heck, just tell me the make and year and maybe I can find something on the internet to work with?

    OK, so you want me to take the first picture, make it look like the last picture and use the front fenders and bedsides from the middle picture. Correct? So a Ramcharger extra cab pickup or just ditch the ramcharger top and add the fenders & bedsides. I can do either.

    Basically... The wheelbase will have to be stretched on the silver ram. If you look at a Gieser TT, you'll see how the bed sides fit into the extra cab. This is how I built my Silver extra cab Chevy yeas ago. The ram and the walker truck have the same front glass, I am going to use the same bedside on the walker class 1 truck. I can't load pics from my iPad, but I will get to my laptop to post up a front view of the truck with the modern looking bed sides.
