Re: 200 mile 1975 c30 single wheel

looking at this further more and more doesn't add up.

1- way too may rock chips for that few miles (looks at edges of fenders and bedsides)
2- wheel don't look original to me, look restored. looks like a see a painted wheel weight. don't think GM painted the wheel weights white did they?

all the nicks and chips on top of the tailgate- again how could you put that many in during 80 miles use?

obviously the underside has been painted. and done very poorly. looks to have been done some time again, but again if you only drove a truck 80 miles why would you paint the underside?

I watched barrett Jackson a few weeks back and a Delorean went thru with 600 miles on it and it was literally perfect. i just don't see any way possible you could put this much wear and tear on a truck in 80 miles.

it does look like a nice low mileage survivor, but to me it looks like 50 or 60k miles. ( I personally own 2 "survivor" cars with 40k each and they have less wear than this truck)
