Have you seen this? The video doesn't appear to be recent, but it's still pretty cool. It was posted on the Stovebolt board.

It belongs to a friend of mine in Wamego ks, and it is still for sale, It is supposed to be going to one of the big auctions shortly and YES it is the real deal

I watched two videos clips of that truck, on this site. It's neat to find one with so few miles, but honestly...it ain't for me.

Did anyone evert shoot a bunch of pics of it for future reference? It would be a goldmine of info to have access to.

cerjio · 12-02-2010, 09:26 PM

I hope it went to someone who realllly appreciates trucks simaler story i read in hot rod magazine a couple of years ago of a car museum in Nevada that closed and they had a rare blue 70 Chevelle ss convertible it had like 250 miles on it, it once was a drag car if I recall but the buyer said he was gonna drive it till the wheels fell off I thought that was a shame but, hey to each his own i guess

Meatman · 12-03-2010, 12:51 AM

I remember when they found that. I was just like......good god why couldnt I have come across that. A couple of my buddies that live in Wamego went and took a look at it at the shop that had it. They said it was pretty epic.

That thing belongs in a GM museum. Seems like a shame that it sold so "cheap". I Sure don't think you could build one with NOS parts that cheap.

I watched the auction on tv, and it didn't sell. It was bid to $24K and didn't meet the reserve. If you are familiar with that auction company, they have a feature called "the bid goes on." That means someone can still negotiate to buy the vehicle after it has failed to meet the reserve.
