Cab swaps arent that hard, and it would be nice to start with something not bashed.

Infernal is wrong, it should be called a dovetail still. A dovetail is the style of it and you are doign it on the front end. You dont dovetail the tail end if the truck, you dovetail the bed.

Sorry infernal :beerchug:

Oh and that sucks about your front end but kinda funny
RIP Kyota.... you are the man

yeah i thought of a cab swap and i figure either way itll get bashed eventually so i might as well work with what i got, plus im not to particular on how good the body looks as long as the windows stay in
