69 LONGHORN • Need a little advice, please.

[Raiburn]

Dad is 90. His insurance is now too high to keep driving his still-running 69 pickup (yes, he's still driving), so it looks like it's time to sell.

The truck was purchased brand new in 69. It's a long bed camper special--CustomCamper/20 8-350 (reads the metal plate on the driver's side)--with some of the fancy options that came out that year, like the chrome trim and the leather-like scrollwork design on the doors and seat. It's pretty worn now, having served as my dad's business truck for many years; still, he managed to rack up only 127,000 miles on the original engine.

You can see on the photo of the glovebox lid all the options and specs listed. I would appreciate any information about this truck you can offer. What do you think it's worth these days?

Thanks for your help.
