back in the 70's there was a guy out here in eastern pa.he used to build all kinds of crazy trucks.he built a truck using 2 coe gmc astro cabs,he welded them together.then put a conventional gmc hood on it.it was black with a mural painted on it .he called it the long horn.it even had the bull horns on the hood.it was too long to run around here with it.so he sold it to somebody out west from what i heard.the truck was pretty well known.i'm wondering if thats the truck your talking about.
