What are your plans with your long stepper?

You have a Longhorn. This '70 is simply a C/30 Stepside. They are all 9'. Before '68 when the Longhorn, the first and only Fleetside bed on a short GM 1t (133" WB), was introduced Stepsides were the only C/30 pickup available. So those are simply C/30 pickups, same as pre-58 when there was no such thing as a Fleetside. All the '57-earlier models were simply pickup trucks. The names Stepside and Fenderside were coined in '58.
