That is neat! And they kept it as simple as possible. Looks like they removed the WW carb and installed a carb for gaseous fuels on there. Interesting to see the converter and fuel switch on the other side. As you said, only natural gas. Did they keep the fuel tank in? And the fuel pump was removed? Cannot see that in the pictures.
I took those photos 21 years ago when I was trying to buy the truck. The owner wouldn't sell, though. The fuel tank was still behind the seat, but there was no filler cap on it. I think the fuel pump port was blanked off.

It was a cool truck -- short wheelbase half ton with a utility box on the back and the rare big back window. Hardly any rust or dents either. Odo showed about 90K miles.
