Yup pretty much so. Seen one of those once, I was like, why'd you F up a perfectly good truck?Half assed as in the same way the conversion companies made extended cab squarebodies. I can’t find it now, but the interior part of the ex cab floor is actually part of the bed floor, looked like a total hack job made out of a reg cab long bed.

I wanted one in my younger and dumber years....not so much now. There used to be one off of 105 near Security that I had my eye on...I’m sure it’s long rusted into the ground now.Yup pretty much so. Seen one of those once, I was like, why'd you F up a perfectly good truck?
I agree that these trucks can be a nightmare if you're trying to restore them, but if you want a nicer than stock truck and you don't care about originality, they're plenty cheap to fix up. I HATED these trucks when they came out, but now that I'm older that retro-eighties thing is kinda cool.I have never liked these trucks, neither the outside or the wood inside.
They could be a nightmare to work on. There were alot of companies making them, few kept any records, many didn't stay in business long.
They used any paint colors they could find, sometimes mixing colors and did not keep the paint codes.
They used accessories from companies that changed styles often or went out of business. It was difficult to get parts for them even when new. One local one man shop was building trucks and vans for a local dealer. He mixed together whatever paint he could find. Used discontinued parts because he could buy them cheaper. We quit working on vehicles he had built.
Other companies such as Centurion have been around awhile, but still didn't seem concerned about repairability.
Many of the companies were based out of the Elkhart Ind area, similar skills to campper building maybe.
