I wish I could have this. It is way cool.

I found this little gem sitting in a fenced in property in the city I work at. Being into these trucks and also being a firefighter/paramedic, I would love to get ahold of one of these and restore it. I finally was able to catch the guy that owns the yard it's in. As you can see in the background there are a few other old ambulance sitting around (Ford van style). I asked the guy what he was going to do with it and he told me it was for sale. He said it was all original, 400ci big block, auto tranny, and he thought it had around 66000 or 68000 miles on it although the odometer showed 35000. I asked the price and he said "I only want $9,500 for it." I about choked right there. It hasn't been started or moved in about 6 years and it has the typical rust issues for these. Didn't get to look at the bottom side cause all 4 tires were flat and I couldn't see under it.

Am I crazy thinking he's crazy for wanting that much for it?
