Since I have one in my driveway (79), the camper special was just an 8200 GVW truck, it has nifty overload springs in the back and supposedly came with a locker in the rear differential (mine does not seem to work, have not looked into it yet though) it also has some pieces bolted to the cab to tie down the camper. Mine also has a cool extendable bumper on the back so if your camper is longer than the back of the truck you can pull the bumper out so you can still tow stuff (I guess) it sure makes taking the bed off a lot easier :-) It does not have the hydroboost brakes, I'm pretty sure chevy only used that on the diesels where there wasn't any vacuum in the engine. It does have some massive brakes on it though, the rear drums look like they are about 16 inches in diameter, it stops really really good :-)
It doesn't look like that guy is going to get what he wants for it off of ebay, never know though, that is a damn nice truck, I'd pay 5 grand for it if I had it. I've got $2500 invested in mine right now and I only paid $400 for the truck an
