When I was a kid my father had a '28 490 Chev that had been converted to a pickup. Nothing fancy, just something he used for going in to his hunting camp before he bought a Jeep. It was actually the first vehicle I drove at age 11 or 12. There seemed to be a lot of similar conversions back then but none that were factory.
