Default Chevy 12 cab FAT drawings

Does any one have a drawing with dimensions on for the rear body/ lockers of the 12 cab FAT as I am about to start rebuilding mine which has been cut behind the doors. Thanks

Hi Steve,

I am restoring a Ford FAT Cab 12. I have a full chassis with engine and winch, engine bonnet, front cowling and the front part of the cab. I'm missing the doors and the rear body/lockers also. Here is a link to an old ebay listing for a Chev Cab 12 FAT shell. Is this location near to you?

Let me know when you have a minute. If I find out or here of anything on this side of the pond, I'll let you know.

Regards, Richard

Yes I picked it up. It seems to be an early one without the canvas cover on the roof

Would it be possible to get it measured up enough to reproduce for future reference ?
Thanks

Steve,
Did your Cab 12 FAT body have any ID tags on it? Mine didn't come with any and I'm trying to get a rough idea of it's vehicle/serial # placement.
Regards, Richard

You could also make a visit to Len Watkins south of Sydney to measure his 7A2 body.

I would also be interested in pictures and drawings of the lockers and rear body of a Cab 12 CGT
