Any info on this ambulance?
 

I'm looking for a truck to restore as a shop project...something I can use as a parts runner and take to car shows as advertisement. A coworker told me about some old trucks his dad has so I went to take a look and found this ambulance. It looks mostly complete and untouched since it was sold by wildlife and parks - still has the cots in the back. I know it probably isn't as valuable as a Suburban or truck would be but it stands out enough. Is there a plate on it somewhere that tells who did the conversion? Are period correct lights hard to find for something like this? It is pretty rusty....pretty much everything on the bottom foot of the body has holes...but looks like between truck and burb patch panels I could probably find what I'd need? What is this thing worth?

A coworker told me about this truck on his parent's farm and thought I could get it for $200. But...I guess someone told his dad that it "would be worth $10,000 to the right person" so I'll keep looking for a project.

Even a low mile just as it left service wouldn't even bring 10K , it's way to far gone and with all the missing items it's just parts at this point .You'll never find the parts to restore if that that was the plan. The next thing being a odd ball conversion not many had up kept and most look like this or still setting.
