46-7 stretch cab pickup

An older member of our chapter took a '47 brougham (2-door sedan) and spliced the rear end of a derelict Hudson pickup cab onto it (keeping the passenger car chassis as I recall). He then shortened the bed from the derelict pickup and mounted it to the chassis. Only problem was that the passenger car's doors flared out at the bottom, while the true pickup doors would have continued down without the flare (they were actually 1941 passenger car doors). The effect was interesting. Being as the brougham had longer front doors than the normal pickup cab, that provided for a 'natural' stretch, and Ed had all kinds of room to move his seat back, PLUS store the spare tire behind the seat. He's gone now, sadly, and the vehicle was sold to a teenaged boy who (unfortunately) hasn't done anything with the truck.
