Is that '58 on a stock chassis?
The 58/58 GMC? That's a stock chassis for an HD 1 ton ("250" model) of the era but it definitely had some weird stuff going on; the front wheels were 19.5" and I'm not sure if they are original or off a newer Frito step van - the rears were an odd size like 18" or 20" IIRC and riveted construction, very old. Now that I think about it I am fairly certain those front 19.5's are off a Frito truck, and the rears are original.

If you meant my '58 Apache it's on a '94 C3500 dually frame that is seriously static slammed, no bags. Don't have all the specs on it as I bought it pretty much the way you see it in the pic. 6.5 turbo diesel boat anchor and NV4500. Chevy didn't make a pickup-bed dually in that era as you probably already know, just cab & chassis. The truck started life as a typical 1/2 ton longbed stepside.

Sorry, yeah I was asking about the GMC. My first thought due to the wheelbase was that it may be squarebody cab/chassis frame. But then I noticed what looked to be small front wheel studs and nuts and I became curious.

Very cool vintage service trucks!!!
This morning we parked close to this nice square body.....
He was gone when we got finished with work at that store (Houston Heights) but the red 88-89 was across from us. I think that dude hasn't seen a longboy 400 cause he was looking real surprised to see it....
