'69 short fleet - 4X4 - rare???

I just saw one of these in a local used truck lot (you know - the ones with about 10 vehicles in inventory). Haven't stopped there yet so I don't know what they're asking or the condition of it, but I'd like to find out if this is considered a fairly rare/desirable truck?

Gunnell's book - 'Chevorlet Pickups 1946-1972' lists a total of 1849 made for this year. How accurate is this number? Anyone know?

Thanks,

swb fleet 4x4s of any year are fairly rare and "desireable."
since its at one of those used car lots, they probably want an arm and a leg for it. try to get some pics if you can.

If the price is good i would defentily snatch it up.....4x4 models of these trucks are rare enough as it is....and SWB 4x4's are a very good find....and make a sweet looking package with a small lift and some nice meat under the fenders
