6 door Super Duty?????

Couple of months ago there was a discussion on 6 door SDs. Did anyone subscribe/post there? If so, can you please kindly forward me the link?

How much would it cost to get one built out of an existing truck? Not that I ‘ planning on doing it, but a close friend of mine is looking for 6 door pick truck to pull trailer and haul his crew of 10 to shows!...

We were brain storming and though this would be the right place to start. Any links, information, picture (photo shop/real), POC or any sort of information would be greatly appreciated.

There is a company called Centurion that has been doing custom work on fords for years. They did the four door bronco conversion back in the 90’s
I’m trying to find there webpage now maybe you will have better luck finding it before me.

See http://www.f650pickups.com/indexb.html

They do conversions to add 6 doors on the F650s. They seem reasonably priced, if you ignore how much an F650 costs...

I've seen an F350 with 6 doors, but it was just a one-off sort of thing some people did... I'm sure it is doable though. Maybe the f650pickups people can do it on "smaller" trucks....

I am sure that you can get it in any outfit you want. King Ranch should not be a problem for these guys that do custom work.

So you mean to say that people who have got 6 doors built went to the conversion shop, parked it and wrote a blank check!!!

F-650's, 4dr, start around $100,00.00, Internationals start around $150,000.00, the one at the Alton link probably start around $250,000.

Sounds like a blank check to me .

I would have a problem feeding the beast, around $500 for a fill-up.

Hey guys, my buddy spoke to the Aton guy last week and he quoted around $23K to $25K for 6 door and 10 foot bed. It seems that the conversion itself would take 8 weeks and they have a back log of 3 months as of now…Will keep you posted on more updates.
