Was there ever a factory - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

fleetside dually from 67-72? Anyone have a picture if yes? Has anyone made their own custom dually bed? pic's?
I think it would be a cool project to make a vintage looking fleetside dually.

Longhorn Man · 08-27-2008, 06:03 AM

there were no trucks with the daul rear wheel option, and a bed, from the factory.
Some will argue, but all the GM books say this, and untill I see one listed on a spid saying otherwise, then that's what I think.There's a few threads, one even recent, that have lots of photos of what you are looking for.

Why do all that work... and use the wrong fenders?

67-72 Stepside fenders.

68 50th · 08-27-2008, 03:40 PM

Here's some more pics.

thirdstreettito · 08-27-2008, 05:21 PM

I wish I had more pics of the board member's Maroon X-cab GMC.

rscam · 08-27-2008, 06:36 PM

Does anyone know whose truck is in post 4 and 7. I was thinking about the Cheyenne moulding on a stepside ,but I didn't think it could be curved around the stepside fender. What about a closeup of that?

**special-K** · 08-27-2008, 06:52 PM

I wondered how that moulding was done,too.

FACT:GM never built a C/30 dual wheel Fleetside pickup in these years.Longhornman is right for once.

I've got pics of exactly how I marked, cut, and mounting the fenders on mine on my build thread. If all goes well, I will have the diesel in and hopefully running by the weekend. Then I'll focus on the getting body ready for paint.

Hey 67_C-30 Thanks for the link to your build. Thats pretty much what I had in mind.
I have a 4x4 and think it would look mean as a dually. I also like to build cars/trucks with "things" that could have beed factory.
In my profile picture I have my truck and a Chevelle. That Chevelle is actually a Cutlass that I hung all new sheet metal on.
Ive got a BBC in the 4x4. That was alot of work making it fit and look right.

On your dually conversion, is there anything you would you different as far as fabrication go's? Are all the long step fenders the same? Could a short step be used?
