WOW that truck is clean man really clean. I like the fact that Mr. Brown bought a brown truck. too funny.

C20-67_N_MO · 01-23-2010, 12:23 PM

WOW!

Looks like it almost just drove off the showroom floor!

Nice find!

unclewatts · 01-23-2010, 12:23 PM

You're telling me that seat and floormats are in that good condition after 38 years? Must have kept it in a bottle.

I hope whoever gets it takes care of it.....

**N2TRUX** · 01-23-2010, 01:23 PM

I love the old flashlight clipped to the dash. When I was growing up thats the exact same light my Dad carried in all our cars and trucks.

I think it's a Ray-O-Vac...

**fine69** · 01-23-2010, 01:49 PM

I say the seat has been recovered. But its still a great truck. The color is Bronze i think.

One of my favorite colors on these trucks.

BLAZERMAN · 01-23-2010, 01:52 PM

That is a Super Nice truck!! Its nice to see an Ebay seller that hasnt tried to hide anything or detail with a rattle can paint job....aside from maybe the bumpers.

Sammy · 01-23-2010, 02:09 PM

Clean truck and nice yes. But it has been repainted at least once. Fact that it has no trim holes around the tail lights. They all came with at least that trim. He never states it hasn't been repainted. Something else claims it's a one owner. and has title proof to 76? Makes you wonder why it sat from early 70's to when he bought it. Didn't mean to bash it just pointing out some holes in his story.

QKENUF4U · 01-23-2010, 02:16 PM

very nice.... comes with the required dent in top of tailgate.........i would change very minor things and drive it....(wheels,lowered a bit,roll pan,carpet/sound deadner)

AusTx68 · 01-23-2010, 02:50 PM

I would find it hard to change anything about that truck. I'd just drive it and keep it clean and garaged.

looks so much like my Dad's first 71, he bought brand new.. he sold it back in the 90s I wish I had know then he did..

His did not have the trim around the tail lights either...

He did have the rayovac magnet flashlight..

I also am assuming that the seat was recovered, I would assume it would be black to match the inside..

still nice looking... I like the light in the engine bay...

jbristo67 · 01-23-2010, 03:39 PM

I think who ever buys it should bag it and cut a hole in the dash for a CD Player

72BlckButy · 01-23-2010, 04:42 PM

Sammy, I believe the lower optioned trucks actually came without trim around the taillights.

And I agree with you Mike (fine69)... with the door panels and dash pad being black, I'd be surprised if the seat hadn't been recovered. One of my favorite body colors as well.

This is such a good candidate for a future project...

Remember... rust free is tough to locate. Excellent buy for someone, especially is the price doesn't get any higher.

my thoughts exactly....

I would not buy a truck like that as I would not want to ruin a perfectly good SWB all original. I am not into originals I prefer

Low buck trucks like this didn't get trim around the taillights. Most of them didn't have it in fact.

BADPURPLE70CHEVY · 01-23-2010, 06:51 PM

This truck reminds of a white 69 that an old man owned till he passed away about 2 year ago. Believe or not it is all original and nicer than this one. His son who is older kept it original and boy you should see it. I will post pics of it when i get up with him.

71GMCSWEDE · 01-23-2010, 06:51 PM

i thought my truck was nice for an original lol

71 super · 01-23-2010, 07:26 PM

Uncle Watts, the floor mat in my 68 is in about the same shape as this one, it still has the original white foam underlay and the asphalt sound deadner intact as well. The seat was dry rotted and a crack in the dash but rest of interior looks very close to the shape it did in 1968, so it is possible.

mcbassin · 01-23-2010, 07:26 PM

I wonder why he advertises as ALL original if it really has been repainted and had the seat cover and mats and redone. Looks to me like a true survivor,I would like to think is anyway. There just aren't many around anymore.

19673ontree · 01-23-2010, 07:45 PM

THAT THING IS AWESOME !

**Joesjunk** · 01-24-2010, 01:00 AM

Im 99% sure thats the original paint. The faded disc brake sticker on the tailgate is usually a good sign. And if you look close there a thin spots here and there. Typical factory paint. And no, thats not the right seat cover. Nice truck though!!

harry · 01-24-2010, 01:18 AM

does anyone know if those types of door mirrors on that truck are still availiable or obsolete now

DZL1 · 01-24-2010, 09:35 AM

That truck is not 100% original. Look at that exhaust tip!! I dont want it anymore. J/K thats a beautiful truck.

Those mirrors are the regular sport mirrors just positioned vertically instead of horizontally. You can find them anywhere.
