I'm considering on buying a Chevy 1 Ton Cube Box Truck - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

It has low miles and looks to be in pretty good condition. My question is what can I do with it? can I put a regular 8' bed on it? perhaps a flat bed? it is a dually.

Thanks.

Ramp Truck. Storage shed for the box body, or re-sale.

Cool truck

What about other costs of ownership, like registration, license, insurance, etc. Would it be higher because it is a commercial vehicle?

all of our trucks (except the burbs and blazers) are commercial vehicles...

I am working on buying a 71 C30 box truck as well, for me, that is where I will store my stash of parts.

That truck has a 157" wheel base and is 24" longer than a Longhorn and 30" longer than a longbed.So,the frame would need shortening to mount a pickup bed.

weld 2 beds together and make it a super longhorn dually
