Re: Bonus cab trucks
I will take some pictures next week.....definitely not parting out .....I am hoping to save the original paint and use it as a old style tow vehicle for a 1980 jet boat ....it is 30 years old and classified as an antique in Alberta.

Re: Bonus cab trucks
I had an '86 Chevy Bonus Cab. It had been sent from the factory to Choo Choo and was a conversion truck with a custom interior. No interior pics though. Before I bought it, I looked at another crewcab dually, it was a factory Bonus Cab. I didn't buy it due to "no rear seat". I believe these trucks were aimed at contractors who could use the backseat area for lockable tool storage, or they could build their own racks/cabinets in this area.

Gmt,
Like I said above, I don't have any interior pics, and the previous owner spray bombed the body all black. Sorry -Rod |

Re: Bonus cab trucks
My (Plainsman by Vacation Customs)suburban came with rear seat not desired,real wood inlay in panels and they built all the seats custom took out the front bench too.The second row was lean forward to get in the back ,captains chairs,not flip seat bolted to the lip.They even made the third seat,it attached on top of the floor.....but forgot to add belts back there lol.
