Extended Cab Pickup

Here is a photo of a truck from PA that was at the 2010 model A new england meet. Slightly extended for the very tall young man who did it.

I'd do like what Brent mentioned, lengthen the doors along with the subframe. Lengthen the bed to keep it proportioned to match the cab and either get AA frame or build a heavier and longer frame. Model A's are easy to stretch with a lot of straight pieces like the frame, windows, etc. I saw a pickup this year at the pancake breakfast done that way.
 
You didn't mention if you already have a pickup or are looking. My advice on modifying an A body in any form, is to asses your facilities, equipment, expertise, resolve to complete the project. I am sure that there are numerous projects out there that fall into the NF category. (NF never finished, in the corner of the shop.)
 
Here are extended 28-29 cab corners. Square tubing is for body panel alignment

Grandpa needed the room also. Not because he was tall. He was round. I am glad he did because at 6' 2" it is comfortable for me.
