Question...??

I have a 77' F350, it was a boxvan type w/ the regular truck front end also with duals wheels in the back. Would this be considered a camper special? Also what is the difference from a camper special and a non-camper?

Thanks

I don't think f350's were camper specials. I could be wrong. I think camper specials had sway bars and beefier springs to help with the camper weight. I really don't know.

That is just a commercial truck chassis that could be ordered in many configurations.

Camper specials had automatic transmissions and heavier springs.
