never seen one from the factory,most likely a conversion truck, like crews & 8 door subs. i think there was one company that did conversions & still carried the gm warranty

I agree. GM never made an extended cab at any plant prior to '88 when the trucks were redesigned. There was a conversion company (or more) and who knows how many they did.

There is a fellow in the forum here that collects these trucks. Just do a search for extended cab and he should come up with lots of pics.

They are a very neat truck!!

I havent seen that one. It is a very nice ride, but a bit pricy for my blood. May be worth it, but I like to build mine myself. That way I know everything is right. Real nice ride tho

Re: have anyone seen a truck like this before? for sale too

GM didnt build any of them. Production numbers range from 500 per year from 84-86 or 2100 total producton. CVI in arlington Texas built the most, but several others built them as well. In over 5 years of searching I have found zero documentation and Ive met two original owners. They didnt figure it was that important. They were sold thru dealers just like the vans.
