Now this is a find! I wonder what the story is behind it? Extra fleet truck parked in the back lot and never used?

I was skeptical of the proposed mileage but that interior is darn near perfect and the engine bay still has chalk marks and retains all original parts, down to the rad hose clamps!

Man, if you buff out the paint and toss on a ramp bed you'd have a killer tow rig! Imagine putting a survivor '70 GM product on the back :D
It's too bad everything is probably locked up from not being run, especially being outside in the Michigan climate.

Me too!! But alas, no space for this big rig. I also would hope he'd negotiate the price for the right buyer...

Looks like the dash pad curled up from all those years of sun exposure, and the steering wheel is sorta the wrong shade of green :tongue:

20 minutes from my house if someone needs eyes on it

Even has the compressor for air brakes.

Curious how it ended up with a blue steering wheel.

I've seen the green wheels turn blue like that before. The die seems to fade over time. This one is broken from heat far more than I would expect, but the dash pad shrinkage is extreme too. Looks more like a vehicle that sat in the desert south/southwest rather than Michigan all this time. But then the tires would be falling apart too.
