Nice looking truck.

Strange that it doesn't have Cab Lights though.

Could be some type of factory photo.

Here is another photo that looks to be the same truck but the dump bed is lifted up and has the GM logo on the print.

I have always found them with the West Coast mirrors.

Thanks

It is interesting that the hand written part on the back of the photo states two speed rear. Would they have done that on a 4x4??

The 4x4 conversion is added to the truck as it's delivered to them. All the info I have it doesn't list what a conversion package consist of or options.

i just worked on a napco kit truck and its got 7.20ish gears in it and a single speed rear . the tires are 8.25x20 @ around 38"-39" tall . so i think a 2 speed rear with this combo would almost be not usefull .

the old orignal truck was rusted out body wise . so we made her live on in a 82 c-60 truck now . axles/transfer case swapped in virtualy a bolt in deal .

i even had reproduced stickers made for the napco power pack t-case shifting and warn locking hubs. . . . i even have extra ;)

And then some, if you were in 4 wheel drive and accidentally shifted the two speed rear with a single speed front I think you'd be spewing chunks of steel in no time!

That's a real nice truck. I think the Napco stuff is pretty cool. Love the larger 4x4 trucks.
