They probably bought it for scrap price back in the day because they thought it'd be cute to have in front of their store, then the prices for those trucks shot up and like you said, someone surprised them with a lot of money for what they thought was an old piece of junk.

Followed this one around for a minute in my Sierra the other day…

Time to catch up on some sightings. The first one I saw at Sunset Speedway in Banks OR. I believe it is a retired track truck. I also spotted a 71/72 Cheyenne on the track grounds later but it was too dark to get a picture.

The next one passed me on I-5 north bound. Slammed on large wheels. It was almost faster than my quick draw camera.

Then a pair of earlier ones seen in North Portland.

And one last photo. From somewhere around town.

I'm sorry the picture wasn't better. It's that whole driving and picture taking thing.

Wrong years and it's caged up. But it's a nice green short step-side.

You weren't saving them, you were holding out on us! A bunch of nice ones in that batch..
