No he stretched a pickup . Used parts from a burban to fabricate the cab . Truck has a Duromax with an Allison transmission.

C/30 longhorn?

I thought that the script was only applied to the bed on a fleetside back by the rear marker light, and not at all on a step side. This reminds me of guys putting "SS" emblems on their non-"SS" cars.

I've seen some creativity in Chevy truck badges. One 69 to 72 K/10 Suburban I saw at a supermarket parking lot had a '' K/10 '' Badge the driver had modified by putting a Blazer badge with a C/10 badge. I think he also had a fake Door Handle and pinstriped door gap on his Door #4.

As to pic # 1029, Is it still a Longhorn if the chassis has been bobbed into a Duallie Rigger's Flatbed?

If it doesn't have a 133" wheelbase, it ain't a Longhorn. That's the whole point of the script! FWIW, I have a Longhorn, and wondered for the longest time why it didn't have the scripts. They weren't used in '70, and possibly other years.

If someone cuts a long bed into a short bed, then what is it? We're all over the cheaters who try and get more money by bobbing them.

Slippery slope, is all I can say.

I didn't think a dual wheel C30 ever had a pickup box.
Sure, it's badge engineering but still pulling the late 80's vibe.
Stacks flat bed roll pan tube grille.
I like it.

Dude definitely had a sense of humor. I'm sorry I didn't get to talk with him. That truck left town shortly after.
This was in the days before cellphone cameras.

After a night shift I went to Costco for gas at 06:45 on a Sunday morning and this GMC pulled up at the other pump. Older guy said he's had it for 31 years.
