Wow. I have not seen these trucks in person, so I certainly won't comment on them. However, I have seen a lot of these trucks over the years, many strange configurations, but I have never seen any 4X4 with coil rear springs. I don't believe I have ever seen a 1 ton with coils either. Same goes for a 1 ton 4X4. I think such a truck may not even have been a COPO, but would have been something a dealer or a truck body company did. COPO's were usually something like an option that was not normally available on a particular vehicle (a 427 in a '69 Camaro is a good example). That would be one weird truck. I hope you can post some pictures and a SPID or the first numbers of the VIN. Sounds really interesting.
