Re: Came across this...
These don't come along very often in good shape and with complete history.
If you decide not to buy it send me a PM because I probably will.

Re: Came across this...
Thanks, hopefully he will let it go before it gets any worse.
Thanks, I would love to have it. Be one I would keep. You are right, not offen do you get to talk to an original owner either. I would love to have it if it works out.

Re: Came across this...
I hope the roof of the camper isn't damaged, or leaking, if so the camper may not be worth keeping....all depends on ones skills and determination!!!
I too, hope this gets saved!!! |

Re: Came across this...
I'd leave the camper shell there, pull the utility bed and put a matching dually bed on it. It'd be fantastic!

Very clean cab. Can't wait to see it after you buy it and get it cleaned and detailed.

Re: Came across this...
Estimated weight is 9,000
And another thing that is funny was this truck was originally 514 red... so they painted the door jams and everything.

Re: Came across this...
Well I got a call Thursday from the owners niece. She said that she had got the note that I had left on the truck a while ago and that they were looking to sell and she said she would be there Saturday... so this morning I went and got to meet all the family and bought the truck!! Very thankful she called.
They are clearing out everything and going to be selling most of it.

Re: Came across this...
Nice! Glad it worked out.
My c30 put around 4,500 on the scale without any bed, so I’d guess around 7k with the utility bed and camper.

Re: Came across this...
Me too! The empty weight with just the bed is 5,900lbs, with the camper over 8,000lbs the tow truck bed was swaying back and forth just going 30mph!

Re: Came across this...
Lots of ideas for the truck, first will be getting the hood open and checking out the engine. Sadly it doesn't look like the camper will be salvageable, years of water leakage has rotted out the wood and it would need everything replaced so going to remove it and probably tear it apart and send it off to the dump if no one wants it.
Need to decide on some wheels/tires and start going through it.
