    Extending '35 Truck Cab

    I am not a big guy and even I find the cab to be way too small. I saw a Facebook post of someone that extended the back of the cab fiberglass by 4". Of course I can't find the post again (did I mention that FB sucks?). Has anyone done this? What about the crossbar on the back of the roll cage? Did you cut/modify it? Send pics if you have!

    2015 Mar: MK4 Complete kit #8617, 302 create, carb, 3-link (still wasn't the 'keeper car' LOL)
    2014 Sep: MKII Kit #4215, 302 create, carb, IRS, Sold as roller (wasn't the 'keeper car')
    2011 Mar: MK3 Base Kit #5400, 4.6L Fuel Injection, Complete! (well, just about)

    Look at Alaskans build thread. Just search Alaskan and you'll find his posts. One of the early builds.
