1-ton stepside??

Recently I saw a 1977 Ford 1-ton duellie, farely normal right?? Not exactly, it had a long box stepside. Where any of these ever factory made?? Or is this some backyard mechanic's creation??

I believe the 1 ton for '77 was only offered in a styleside body.

No 73-79 dual rear wheel pickup ever had a box from the factory - they were all flatbeds. So the duallie fenders came from another pickup.

Yes. A Styleside was the "standard" body and a Flareside was a stepside body. And Yes, there were also no dual wheels on p/u for that yr. Thanks Marty for making things a little clearer.

When i first fell in love with these trucks i wanted a 78 f-350 4x4 dually w/ the bed. well this combo was never mad. 78 f-350 duallys were made just none w/ a bed or any with 4x4. so that shot that. so i gotta custom build one. i might start next year on this project.
