Whiskymack Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 Someone here correct me if I am misinformed, but in keeping with the original purpose of the U model (short BBC), the shorter cab was retained throughout the entire model run.GreggThat's right as far as I know. I have an '80 brochure that lists the 90" BBC as standard but offers the 93" as an option so I guess you could order the plus 3 cab on a U if the BBC wasn't an issue. There was a nice blue U model with a plus 3 cab on Ebay a few months back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daveigou Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 Now Vinney, I know this isn't a U model, but I think a flame job like this would really look cool on yours!!!
