1959 GMC Redwood Housecar
I was searching through the Best of Craigslist and found this archived item. The truck actually looks very original and the ad says it was built in 1971. Judging by the last picture it seems like it got some use in its day

Re: 1959 GMC Redwood Housecar
A pretty rustic chassis mount camper. Looks like the add was from 2023.
I'd bet that rig has some stories to tell about it's travels and adventures though.

Re: 1959 GMC Redwood Housecar
GMC 270 motor is a great power plant!
That and the body of the truck is worth something? Personally I would set the house back in the woods and use it as a hunting blind! Rebuild the truck cab / frame and make a flat bed out of it! Just my .02
