Never seen it. Interesting. Was it a option in late 72 ?

Reminds me of DJ Jeeps.

I don't even know why you would want that. It must ride like crap. Straight axles were phased out for a reason.

Probably some home engineering to clear those tires. I doubt it would ride any worse than a 4X, as they would have been pretty much the same, minus the running gear...

This. I'll pass. I'm sure someone will buy it, but he should sell it cheaper due to that setup.

the 2wd scouts were that way, but i've never seen a chevy like that. be interesting to see the glovebox option sheet.

Seems like the vin number would tell the tale on that one. Looks like someone welded a solid piece in place of the front diff. I would like to see the cab floor, trans, etc. there may be signs of a factory four wheel drive truck.
