Chevrolet Silverado 3500 ambulance

2007 Chevrolet Silverado 3500HD LT2 Ext. Cab DRW 4WD EXTENDED CAB CHASSIS , 6.6L V8 OHV 32V TURBO DIESEL.

Duramax with 130k on it is not a lot of miles. Being an emergency vehicle, it was pretty much for sure maintained on schedule.
Just make sure it doesn't have like 10,000hours on it. That's roughly equivalent of about 400k miles at normal driving, albeit mostly no load idling.
The rest of the truck should have a lot of life left in it.
Normal driving it would have 3500-4000hours.
Emissions issues could be costly, regardless of hours, but deleting is an option if you don't have emission testing.

As far as swapping on a pickup bed, it should be a direct bolt up. I don't think GM made a GMT 900 true chassis cab with straight frame rails in back.

I'll presume it is considerably cheaper than a comparable pickup, which would go for at least $25k in good condition.
LT2 is nice options, not a stripped down work truck.

That is what I am trying to figure out currently, can I retrofit a long bed service body or truck body to it. I wish it had an hour meter on it but it doesn't.

The computer may have the data. For the service body, you can talk to the service body manufacturers, and probably get a fairly quick answer.

Almost positive it does. Either in the dash info center or the odometer. Look it up. It’s there somewhere.

If it has a service body on it now the chances are good that it is a cab/chassis which has a narrower frame , standard for most service bodies and flatbeds . It will have a frame that is 4" narrower than a pickup and 4" longer between cab and axle which means a pickup bed will not fit properly . I don't know of any year when GM did not have a cab/chassis available for a 3500 drw .

Has the OP looked at the truck? Either it's a straight frame or it's not. Said it does t have an hour meter so presume he looked at it.....

Grit Dog , define "straight frame" . All 2500hd and 3500 G M's from 2001 on have a flat bed frame , no hump over the rear axle .
