I think I saw one on eBay last year. Same diamond plate deal, too.

That's new to me...I dig long-beds, but that is just ridiculous.

Re: 12 foot bed?
 

Seriously, who really needs 12 feet of bed? That's crazy.

Buy it and slam it. It would look twice as long laying on the ground.

I thought 74's were all round headlights? I like the 12 foot bed and could find 101 uses for it.

cc long bed frame with a single cab?

Re: 12 foot bed?
 

Yep - looks like he put an '80 grille/lamps on it.

Thats what i figure, then stretch the bed using a donor bed which is probably why he has a door on one side and a cap on the other(two different beds)

A drywall,vinyl siding,or carpentry contractor. You can haul a sheet of drywall,siding boxes,and even up to 16' lumber in a 12' bed. Some people use trucks for work:lol:. Back when these trucks were current ('77 0r so) there was a guy around here who had one stretched to 12' and it was tandem. It had chrome spoke wheels and I thing it looked awesome.It was very well done with sharp paint and the wheel wells were done just right. I never talked to the guy. This was back when a Dooley pickup was a fairly new thing and the whole truckin' craze was really taking off.
I also have a friend who has a recycled lumber company. Another friend is his mechanic. He runs all GM trucks and Tommy custom built a 12 or more foot flatbed C/30 DRW with a tag axle.

Re: 12 foot bed?
 

I would love to have that truck, very neat. Make it dump and haul some dirt! :D That thing is SO cool.

I there was a red one in PA, on CL a while back, pretty cool. There is a 4X4 DRW w/a flatbed on CL in ME currently. Pretty cool trucks, plenty of room.

10 foot would look better

Re: 12 foot bed?
 

i seen one last year that was a 83 84 that was a dually

Re: 12 foot bed?
 

Looks like they did a decent job but as mentioned earlier the filler door on one side & gas cap on the other would bug me. I would have to fix that.

You could easily over load that thing with so much bed area.

It doesn't say or show if it is 8-lug or not. I would hope it is not a 1/2-ton.

Re: 12 foot bed?
 

from what i read on here a while ago, they made these trucks for ambulances with the single cab and an no bed and people have just put beds on them

Re: 12 foot bed?
 

I have seen a couple in my day, never knew the story behind them before.

Re: 12 foot bed?
 

I like it, but those filler doors would need to match.
