Connundrum

I am restoring a 1966 C30. Rotted out basket case that I started with so nothing I do could really hurt it. My original thinking was to turn it into a single rear wheel fleetside truck. I already have the bed (needs work) to turn it into a normal 8' bed, I have to shorten the frame 6" to get the wheel base right. While I am going to do that, I plan on Z'ing the frame to drop the cab 5". I will adjust the front to the best ride height as I rebuild it.

My connundrum is that earlier tonight I got to thinking it would look cool lowered as a flat bed dual rear wheel. Stay with the dual 1 ton wheels, etc.

What are your thoughts? Which would look cooler- a lowered LWB fleetside SRW 1 ton or a lowered flatbed 1 ton? I plan on using the truck for daily use- this won't be a garage or car show queen. If you have any pictures of either, please share them in this thread. Thanks!
