Just a modded Chevie??

Hey fellas, I wanted to see if anybody else has seen this truck. I'll see if I can describe it.

[[Guarding the front gate at my place of work, watching traffic go by - when a 70 - 80's model Chevie cruises on by. It looked like a regular pickup only the bed was cut in half, like a blazer. The rear tires were flush just like a regular truck, except it was a dully! Whoever done this chopped the bed and made the rear tires flush like normal. It was different, I wish I could have talked to the owner. How would you make a dully's rear flush like that? Chop the axle?????]]

Anybody else seen this truck? Or has anybody done something like this to a Dully?

The hot rodders run narrowed axles a lot of times. They also might "tub" the wheel wells.

Just an idea,

another thing to consider is the fact that the Chevy dually rear is narrower that the single rear.
