'71 Camper Special - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I was on my way back from a camping trip sunday afternoon and saw a beautiful thing. It was a '71 Custom Camper sitting in the grass next to the hwy. I locked up the brakes and turned my but around.
The truck has 65,000 org miles on a 350. The seat is sexy, not even a scratch. The only spot of rust on this thing is around the bottom mirror mount on the pass door. Somethin hit it while it was sitting in the garage. Three fuel tanks, leaf springs, and much more than I can list. It makes me sad. Oh yea, the original camper was sitting on the back. After talking to the owner, He told me the truck was garaged most its life.
So on the way home, I had the wife meet me in town for a nice dinner to butter her up. After me begging and pleading with her I talk her into going and looking at it. I parked the truck and jumped in hers and we drove the 45 miles back out there. She liked it but told me I was crazy.
If anyone is interested I have the phone #. He wants $7500 for it and it is near Concrete, WA. I am still sick to my stomach!
