never seen a factory '79 dually before, but by the way the lines on the box/fenders all line up, this looks like a real deal...

It`s very nice and it must be pretty rare, I`ve never seen or heard of one before this. The rear fenders look like they`re off an 80`s dually though...........
Too bad we can`t take up a collection and buy it for our club truck......

I dont think its factory, I personally think it looks ugly as hell with the squarish looking rear fenders.

Least its white

It`s white and rite!
There`s nothing even the slightest bit ugly about this baby to me, I had a 79 F350 dually and I did consider making it into one of these.

The whole square with the round bodystyle just doesnt look right to me.

I wasnt a fan of the supercabs back then either.

Id like to see a reg cab dually, with roundish looking fenders, that would be neat!

White, of course

you know i've always thought of doing this one day, i think it would look deadly, this one looks kinda goofy tho, the way i was thinking of it was using the step side fenders on the box... dunno tho

Are you talking about the step fenders from a truck in that era Kirk? If so, thats what I was talking about too, the curves would look so much better, IMO.

$10 000!!!!!!! What, is he stupid! Wow! Nice enough truck, but that's nuts! I'd be lucky to get that for mine now! Mind you mine's a little rougher body wise, but still....

The guy is definatly dreaming on the price. Guys that do "custom" work like that usually think its worth a fortune after.

I know it's a LOT of time and work, but come on! especially for a bigger truck, who's going to pay that. Having said that, I do like the looks of it. Should be a crew cab though!
