What I see a lot here is the "Fully Restored" that came with pedal pad delete option.....

I think I have one of those rare factory moon roofs in my storage shed.
I will need to post a WIW post to determine its value.
Priceless

What's the RPO code for that again?

['68OrangeSunshine]

I wanna see pix of the cab and the SPID.
My nephew ''won'' a free moon roof and install from a local accessorizer shop. Radio station promo. Had them put it in his S/10 Blazer. It leaked, then blew up into tiny glass shards after a few years.
But of course a _Factory_ one would have outlasted the S/10 Blazer.

lots of rare options on this jewel. 2wd body on what appears to be a 66 or older frame AND the ultra rare divorced transfer case option to go along with that rare moonroof.

[kwmech]

That MIGHT be a 1000.00 truck. Almost 8k is way out of line. There is so much wrong with that truck and especially the description

[Getter-Done]

I think they are misinformed.
That looks like a SunRoof.

Guy obviously graduated from the school of higher learning.

The most important and desirable part of this FB ad is that the truck is "paid off".

[Bob B.]

It's got the rare single master cylinder option too.

I bet the whole drive train came from the same truck. It’s got the old hub loks on it too, which means it’s a drum brake closed knuckle axle more than likely. Some people do really dumb things. Atleast get square body axles that have disks. I wonder if the whole frame isn’t from an older truck. That would explain the master too.

[Bob B.]

I think you are right, it's on an old frame. Says it was a divorced transfer case, that's pre-'67.

['68OrangeSunshine]

Just noticed it's in Lenexa KS, home of LMC Truck. But since the Odometer is ''not rolled over'' then it must have all OEM parts.

[Joesjunk]

That truck is local to me, and what a mess of parts it is! It’s been for sale for several months.

MAybe one of you sleuths can decode the VIN on the cowl....?

[craigg1]

Im curious how he arrived at the "Around 200 ever made give or take" number.

I assume the same way he figured that pile of rust is worth $8k.....

[57taskforce]

I really like how it says the odometer has never rolled over, but lists the mileage as 123456…

Apparently this Miracle Truck has the extremely rare Six Digit Odometer Option.

[Steeveedee]

Six digits. My insurance company wanted the mileage from my truck odometer. It took a few tries to explain to the young 'uns in their office that that odometer has a decimal point!

I had an incident with Roadside Rescue last year. I was working a gig Downtown. Had to be there at noon and work til 10 pm. Driving to Downtown at lunch hour, I put my 4-eyed Brights on. Then, I forgot to turn them off, being in daylight. When I got off that night, my battery was dead flat. I called Roadside Rescue for a jump. Dude showed up about half an hour later. We jumpstarted the battery. It took. I had to give him my VIN for their insurance.
I had to be back at work at 8 am. I got about three blocks, before the Rescue guy called me saying my VIN didn't work. I stopped. He met me. Took a pic of the VIN Plate. Insurance robot still gagged. Not enough digits. So we added five Zeros in front, and that worked. I didn't get a lot of sleep before I had to get up for work again.

I've had nights like that. I'm retired, so they are few and far between, now. Thankfully.
