Cool...reminds me of the MPC 1/25th scale model kit, except the kit is a '69...

Nice...

I'd be so stylin' and profilin' if I rolled up in that at the campground this season. Except for those ripped up seats in the cab, I'd have to have those redone.

Wildman, you mention a 250 swap in your original post... don't you think a 292 would be even cooler, as I think the larger six was used in the heavier chassis in those days?

I like it, but the AC needs to work!

Truly has some style for such an olde but a goodie. CHEERS!!!

Some of those Open Road campers had a sliding glass door at the back and a porch..
