Gents, I have been thinking long and hard on this one - it's truly a rare bird. It's such a great candidate for a full resto that I simply don't have the heart to yank the 6 and stuff in a period 283 or 327. I'm just not a 6 guy, sorry. But, it's kind of breaking my heart, because I'm quite certain I'll never find a 65 bbw custom camper ever again - with or without a V8. But, I'd have to sell a current custom camper project, or two, to fund what I'd like to do with this one. So, here you go - I sincerely hope someone on here buys this truck - I think it is a superb full resto candidate. I know we have lots of custom camper fans on here, and I know you all know that 65s are rare as hens' teeth - around 1500 total compared to over 9000 in 66. And who knows what fraction of those were ordered with bbws. A small one I'd be willing to bet. Anyway, very original, has all the interior still there for the most part, to include the beautiful 65 steering wheel. And it still has its split rims and C20 caps (caps hard to come by). It's a standard trim truck with white over turquoise poly - a beautiful combo - originally. Anyway - enjoy. Seller's name is Jay - he still had this as of two days ago - and the only reason is probably because the ad has only had about 180 views in a month's time listed. Most casual truck shoppers wouldn't even give this one a 2nd look, but we all know better
No SPIDs til 66 and seller says there was no build sheet when he had the seat out to replace the tank, so hard to certify true custom camperness, but the tell tale signs are present, to include the overload springs (which you can conveniently view from the top!). For what it's worth, I don't know the seller other than the last weekend when we chatted - I think the price is pretty fair for this truck, all things considered. He has a spare bed as well and it has a good step bumper on it, but I don't think he was including it in the price ($4500 asking price). Here you go:
