83 single wheel 1 Ton extended cab

Has any one seen one of these before my brother and I are trying to find out any information we can about these trucks
any ideas how many of these extended cabs were made?
it is the first one we have seen
we know it is a factory 1 Ton 4WD and it was converted to the extended cab by a company in Texas and sold with a GM Warranty but we dont have much more than that
any help would be appreciated

I've seen several here in texas. Matter of fact saw one yesterday. All of them i have seen have serious rust issues and lots of filler. Like sheets of filler falling off.

I have seen several myself when i've been traveling through Texas. As previously stated, almost everyone is seriously rotted around the extended cab part and the conversion company used a TON of bondo!!

Can't deny how cool it looks tho! Me likey!!
