Re: help with identifying and estimated vaule and rareity
Looks like someone cut the camper off of it and made a flatbed out of it. Camper trucks are almost always in good shape since they are not driven a lot.

Re: help with identifying and estimated vaule and rareity
Hi,I have a 1971 C30.
I got it 19 years ago with 87,000 miles on it. It has only 123,000 on it now and the bed is wood and 6 inches longer then a stock bed,that is what makes it a longhorn model. I will post some pictures later. |

Re: help with identifying and estimated vaule and rareity
That's a cool truck! It very well could have a camper frame on it if it was ordered as a cab and chassis. As a matter of fact it could have anything on it the original owner wanted. I don't think it matters if it is a camper frame or not, fact is its a cool flatbed now! Good luck with the restoration!

Re: help with identifying and estimated vaule and rareity
It's just one example of several hundred thousand that were built so It's not rare, but the equipment on it is not seen that often. It's a 'driver' in the condition it's in so as to value...just average.

Re: help with identifying and estimated vaule and rareity
Sure looks just like the frame under the camper I just removed from my 68 1 ton dually. I have never seen "ANY" flat bed that boxed up and over the rear except the campers. I just pulled a camper off my 68 dually and it looked exactly like the flatbed on yours. Is it close to rubbing on the top of the tires?
