78 GMC Dually "THE BOSS"

[bodyman922]

Well I just bought this truck and figured I fill you in on the details that I know. This thread is just a continuation of the thread "Is it worth it". The truck appears to be an old texas truck sold at a dealership in amarillo. Somewhere along the line it made it's way to minnesota and unfortunately it has the usual mionnesota rust, but the doors, fenders, hood, and box look pretty clean yet as does the frame. It has been repainted at some point but what truck this age hasn't.

The front axle has been replaced with a Dana 44 out of a 3/4 ton. The dash pad is out of a newer truck but the interior looks clean yet. I found some paperwork in the truck that states the frontend is a 76 not sure if they mean the axle or sheetmetal. Doesn't appear that anything heavy was hauled in the box as the floor is straight yet. The're are 3 emblems on it (2 on the box sides and one on the tailgate) that say "THE BOSS" not sure if these are generic emblems, dealer add on, special edition, aftermarket equipment, or what they are. Turbo 400 tranny, stock rear end, No engine. All this purchased and delivered for $700. Here are some pics, I'll get better ones during daylight hours.
