Any story on that

This one was taped to the gas tank, and there’s one still in the seat back

Yes, it had a slide in camper when it was new. Check out this old ad I found.

Beautiful truck Joe.
You are the perfect owner for this time capsule.
Congrats.

**57taskforce** · 07-13-2021, 12:05 AM

WOW! Congrats Joe, that is truly incredible! That truck could really be a great reference to how some of the small details on the K trucks(and all the others) were from factory.

jumpsoffrock · 07-13-2021, 12:15 AM

Any pics of your 80 1 ton with 10k miles? Sounds very cool.

This truck is awesome btw, crazy to think someone ordered this beauty and didnt hardly drive it.

**StingRay** · 07-13-2021, 12:23 AM

Wow just Wow.Amazing find.

72Teeroy · 07-13-2021, 07:00 AM

Bones72Super · 07-13-2021, 08:05 AM

This guy and his junk........Glad your persistence paid off!

**Orange71shorty** · 07-13-2021, 08:26 AM

Wow, what a time capsule! Amazing

**Stocker** · 07-13-2021, 08:33 AM

That is a beautiful truck for sure, thanks for the pics. Kinda reminds me of when I bought my K20 back in 1977 with about 50K on the clock -- mine was a nice original truck but not as perfect as yours.

**uncle** · 07-13-2021, 08:48 AM

Another killer original ride. You’re gonna have to start on that 2 story high rise parking deck soon.

Maybe you should change your board name to Original Joe.

Dang that is an amazing truck! Sitting here drooling all over the keyboard looking at the pics.

35boulder · 07-13-2021, 08:55 AM

I guess I can now see why you sold the other truck. Way to go staying in the hunt for this one.

**1971Stepside** · 07-13-2021, 09:09 AM

Hope you are bringing this one out Saturday. I would love to see it.

pickupman · 07-13-2021, 09:26 AM

I’m bringing it, and the grey ‘80. Possibly 2 others if my week goes good.

RustyBucket · 07-13-2021, 09:44 AM

Is there a good story or history on where & why this truck was stored for 50 years? Maybe some details on the hunt to buy it after you found out about it.

**Ol Blue K20** · 07-13-2021, 09:54 AM

I'm drooling Joe!! Nice find.

It’s doesn’t have a really detailed story, but here’s the story I got. Owner number 1 bought it but soon after had to sell it because of a failing business he owned. Owner number 2 used it to go hunting only a few times then parked it inside. Not sure why he never used it. Owner number 3 I’m guessing bought it and resold it to the man I bought it from. Then man I bought it from bought it in 1999 and just stored it in a climate controlled garage. He drove it less than 1500 miles.

**Joesjunk** · 07-13-2021, 10:21 AM

Here’s the miles from 1999. 9074

Good deal Joe! Glad to see you finally picked it up. I won't get to see it this year but maybe next year.

Since it was missing the camper, I'm sure you got it for less.
