Re: Not something you see everyday...
I think that truck used to have a matching pull camper too. IIRC it came up for sale a year or so ago but the camper was long gone.

Re: Not something you see everyday...
That's some hardcore 70's styling there! Not my style, mind you. But pretty cool.

Re: Not something you see everyday...
That was for sale on Ebay previously for a lot more money I think. It had a funky travel trailer it was built for that is long gone.

Re: Not something you see everyday...
The truck was built by Dee Howard of TX, a well know aircraft modifier. It pulled a custom Airstream fifth wheel travel trailer, which apparently is alive and well in TX also. As mentioned the truck was for sale on eBay and it had a list of modifications. Other than a turbo and airbags the rest escapes me. Probably have the auction archived if it is really important to someone please PM me.

I would have loved to have seen that truck & trailer cruising down the highway.

Re: Not something you see everyday...
It would be cool to get the truck and trailer back together. They are both pretty cool.

Re: Not something you see everyday...
That is one fine custom-built no money spared one ton. I don't see $100,000 in it over 20 years ago,though. That must have been including the travel trailer that was extremely cool! It was painted to match,if that's the same one Tim showed. The ad needs to give more info. I think it could be worth the asking price from already knowing a lot about it. Personally,I would have never broken up that combination unless someone was wiling to pay the total asking price and leave me the truck. It was a combo to die for and now it's just a coo truck.
