Need help identifying this monster

Acquired this chassis in a trade and I am trying to figure out what it is. Can't find any numbers on the frame but probably looking in wrong place. It is super heavy duty, almost like an armored car. It has very heavy plate steel reinforcements on the frame. It has a 351, automatic and dually rear axel. Not sure even how old it is. Since I can't post pictures here, I guess I need to find a different place to post them. Any suggestions on where or how I can get some information? I know I am not providing much info but I don't have much more to offer except pictures I can't post.

Thanks to anyone in advance

Welcome to the forums.

Use Photobucket to post pics, very easy to do and FREE.

Depending on which 351(M or W), could be mid 70's up to early 90's.

I'm trying to recall, but I think there is information on front passenger frame rail? Top side?

The earlier trucks had cast radius arms and mounts, the newer had stamped steel models. Not a lot of help and not sure what year they changed?

Wonder if it was an armored transport? I know I've seen 1 ton models with pickup front ends.
