6 Speed Special cab

Is there any information available on cab wood dimensions for a 6 Speed Special? I remember from several years ago Jackiedog29 was building a cab. I did not know if he had some sort of blueprint to go off of or if it was mostly guesswork.

Re: 6 Speed Special cab

The late JD (R.I.P) made his own cab up using the original as a template it is ready for the sheet metal to go on and im sure Lewis, Kathy & Wendy will see it finished in memory of Al.

I have got these pictures which were posted on the old site before it crashed hope they help.

Re: 6 Speed Special cab

Sure glad you had saved those before the other site crashed!! If I ever get to the B-3 I will see if these are not the same or close to it.

Re: 6 Speed Special cab

Based on my recollection, they look VERY close to my B-3. In fact, the floor drawings look VERY close to my C series as well.
Just wonderful. Where else are you going to find this?

Thanks for saving these, Trevor. What a valuable resource!

Makes you appreciate JD's meticulous work.
Thumbs way up!
