Thanks Ed,
Well that answers our number questions. The difference between the suffix
of -06 and -16 is going to be the difference in the rear doors. I don't
know what the 2-wheel drive numbers match up to. On the 4-wheel drive
trucks the -56 matches up to the "barn door" type doors (vertically split),
the -66 matches up to the "clam shell" type doors (horizontally split).
You may have a difficult time finding a kit, but you might be able to peace
on together. If your interested, E-mail off list and I will try and put
you in touch with someone who might be able to help you. You will probably
invest somewhere in the neighborhood of $1500.00+ to install a NAPCO setup,
and get it back to useable condition.
