Wondering if it was done for show or if someone did it for extra stability when towing or hauling something. We'll never know, but it's an interesting concept, and not something you see everyday. Note photo is a '63 C 20 with coil rear end.
On my 71 C30 factory duals if I wanted to put a box on it it will require widening the bed tubs and the outside tire will stick out just a tad past the fender lip.
