Well theres models G10, G20, G30, P20 & P30 in 1981. It has to be one of those. I dont think its a Caddilac

van truck?
 
it is definitly one of those models but it has a duallie and a full size pick up bed and the cab is like half of an 81 i dont think it was distributed by gm i think its some kind of dealership custom

Yea, or a aftermarket/third party or homemade model.

This item was purchased from Chevrolet as a Cutaway Van. It is what they use to make Class C RV or Ambulances out of .

The fiberglass backend was added and the standard longbed with some small dually fenders.

I intend to replace my fenders with 73-87 Dually Flares as they are larger and would look better.

Mine was purchased after an engine fire, so it needs everyting.

I am currently preparing to do a LS 6.0/4L80 in it.
