69 burb sounds great! is it a 4x4 or 4x2? 1500 or 2500?

You own my unicorn truck!!!

everything on this truck is in such nice shape for how old it is. I would call it the time capsule!

It took us about two hours though getting the 40 year old tires off! But now they look so nice it´ll be tough to not mess them up mounting the tires again (new ones).
This is also a unique combination that I thought was cool even before I knew they actually built a few of those.

I got confirmation from GM Heritage Cnter that with the V8 they only built 41 total. (68 total in ´68). And the guy mentioned with the manual 4 speed and the PTO winch it might have been less than a handfull that were built that way. This one is almost museum worthy!
