No, it is like the one picture on here, short wheel base pick up body It has a lot more room in the drivers department than the Ford Econoline vans or early Chevy vans had, I had to drive both in the late 1960 working for a telephone company in SO CA. Our Engineering Dept. had one Dodge A100 long wheel base passenger van with a lot of windows, but I never rode or drove it. The Econoline vans had 170 C.I. sick six cylinders in them, they had a hard time maintaining 65 MPH down hill wit a tail wind

Nice Work! They are neat and very light little trucks, tried selling this one for a friend years back, think it still might be in his barn were I left it.
Was that truck in Lodi back in the late 90's? I vaguely remembering seeing it out at Sac raceway and a shop in Lodi around that time.

i've thought of that as well cab, but i thought that really applied to very low pressure reading gauges like a fuel pressure unit. i considered this type of coolant temperature gauge as a quick underhood check used with solid mounts. i guess a guy could check the inaccuracy with a temperature gun to see how far off it could be, and use a mental note. [provided i could remember what that "note" was. ]
