One piece drive shaft vs two?

My '73 K20 has a single piece drive shaft in the rear, it's the first time I've seen one of these trucks like that. It's huge too, like 4-5" in diameter. All the others I've seen have the two piece with the extra bearing in the middle.

I'm just curious, why does my truck have the one piece shaft, and what difference does that make? Is that just something they did on all the earlier trucks?

You can set my truck on fire and roll it down a hill,
and I still wouldn't trade it for a Coupe de Ville.
