I don't know much about GM of those years.Back then I was doing my time working at a Ford dealership.Seen most one ton Fords come in as cab and chassis.Ford only offered a flatbed/stake body from the factory.When a new one tonner was delivered on the car carrier,it was already spoken for.All special ordered vehicles.Not a lot of people bought them back then.But then,most dealers didn't stock too many pick-ups back then either.Those cab and chassis trucks were sent to an after-market truck body shop.They came back as small dump trucks,tow trucks,utility body/service trucks,small van bodied trucks,etc.I can only remember seeing one single rear wheel one ton back then.They were almost exclusively all dual rear wheel. Life was a lot simpler back then when ordering a new truck.There just wasn't a whole lot of options to choose from.
