were these trucks sold to the public

Zoomin · 02-24-2010, 12:24 AM

Yes. I think some dealers did the conversions.

hgs_notes · 02-24-2010, 12:25 AM

Not direct from the factory. Conversion companies did them.

Yes anyone could walk into a Chevy or GMC dealership and order one. You basically ordered a truck the way you wanted it and it was delivered to one of the conversion companies that GM used..at the time I believe it was Scottbuilt, Alton and Pacific Conversions...then they would do the conversion whether it be the crewcab or extended cab and then it was back to the customer. I imagine most were ordered by forestry service and railroads but if you had the money it could be done.
I believe Alton may still be in bussines...I know they were still building crewcabs fo GM up into the 80s.

EVERY question that is going to be asked no this forum has been asked before. So NO ONE should post anymore and just search.

makes a lot of sense huh?

It does.. if every one would search and then post if they didn't find anything there wouldn't be so much clutter and all the moderators moving posts to a thread started before that asked the exact same question. But yes, I should have linked up some stuff

I don't have the book. It was just a picture someone posted on the board that I downloaded.
