I'm not sure what they are called, but there is one that runs around here. It's tan with brown stripes, ground effects and chrome wheels. The original owner had a horse ranch and pulled a matching goosneck trailer. I always thought it was awesome.

Just found one. It's an E350 Dually 5W Hauler. It may be one of the Centurion customs built vehicles. They usually do the custom conversion work for Ford.

According to the 1981 Truck manual, they are called a E-350 Comercial Cutaway.

There are also the E-350, Parcel Cutaway, and RV Cutaway.

The commercial cutaways i found are cut off behind the front doors. These are cut off behind the dual side doors. They usually have rear captains chairs. the only year i can find them for is 1986. I believe they were for mainly pulling 5th wheel travel trailers.

Ah ok. Yes, you are right, the commercial cutaway is cut off behind the front doors.

I'm thinking of a totally different truck.
