Re: found a 72 3/4 ton surviver
Pardon my French,but that's just too muckin' fuch! So awesome for it to be black,too. Straight panels? As straight as the day she was born. Also a great example of order what you want and screw the rest. My Cheyenne Custom Camper survivor I had for many years came with painted camper mirrors and the original owner had the dealer swap on stainless. Now this one is a base truck with painted trim parts,but stainless mirrors spec'd out. Got that auxiliary battery and fuel tank,camper wiring,mirrors,etc when many Custom Campers didn't. Plain seat but with full foam. What a great example of a survivor as well as a great less is more example. That cap is a great period piece,bird hunter and all. Looks right handsome on there. I love a notch top truck as much as anyone,but that's the beauty of a cap like that...easy on/easy off.

Re: found a 72 3/4 ton surviver
Like Johnny Cash's song about the Cadillac plant, looks like he brought those parts home via his lunch box... ;D
Great to see a vehicle so close to original condition, I really appreciate seeing this truck. Always a big help for us guys restoring a truck back to original condition. |

Re: found a 72 3/4 ton surviver
Wow, that is a nice truck! Just curious though, and I know you may not want to say, and if you don't I TOTALLY understand, but what does something like that go for on CraigsList? Doesn't seem like the place to get top dollar out of a truck, was it someone who inherited it and didn't know what they had?

Re: found a 72 3/4 ton surviver
Awesome truck, great to see that there are still some native survivors in this great salt north. I think that cap was great, I would love one like that in white or Ochre. The trucks are hard enough to come by but original caps are one thing you absolutely can't find anymore. I don't know how often I would have it on, but it definitely is a niche that is pretty unique. I'll keep an eye out for this black beauty at local shows.
