Unreal! I believe you but this sure is unbelievable. How the heck does someone never drive a new vehicle? I thought the same when I saw Sting Rays with dealer mats and window stickers. I sure ain't THAT guy. it's mighty odd that it has painted hubcaps, side trim, and single mirror on a Custom with nice options. If he decides to part it out, I'd be interested in...

Thanks for the interest everyone. Basically the backstory is that my Grandfather back in 66 had his old farm truck breakdown so he decided to go get a new one which is this truck I have posted. With Grandpa being from depression days he drove the new truck back with parts to fix his old truck. So now the old truck is fixed and he continued to use that so he parked the new one back in one of his barns. My Grandfather was quite the packrat and I think eventually he forgot it was back there as it was stuffed behind some old tractors and farm equipment. It was eventually pulled out of the barn by my Dad and Grandfather about 8-10 years ago. My Dad took it to his place and got it shined back up and running again. The tank had to be pulled and cleaned since it had original gas in it and the carb was very rough so he had to have it cleaned up by a GM shop. The GM boxes that are on the passenger floor is the radio and antenae as I guess they were not installed directly back then by the factory. I could be wrong on that though.

Uh oh...... There's a parking ticket on the windshield. Lol
This truck is a GREAT example of how the interior is supposed to look. Especially the gauge cluster and the seat from the pics so far. What's the drive train?

That's super nice. Where did your dad get it? Was it his dad's?

That's a great story, it's neat to see a truck like that and get the story too.
The radio and antenna were installed from the factory, but that one came to the dealer without them on the order sheet when the dealer ordered the truck. Your grandpa liked the truck, but wanted the radio, so the dealer included the radio and antenna. Your grandfather probably saved a few bucks by telling them he would install the radio and antenna himself.

True survivor- I'm sure someone out there would pay big money for a chance to own such a low mile truck. Very cool!

Not to hijack the thread but my uncle bought one of those 750hp Corvettes, had it put on a trailer. Delivered to his garage and rolled into a stall. That was two or three years ago. Still sitting in the same spot with 0 miles on it.

amazing.. I can understand why you would hold back on posting it. I personally don't know that I would post it to keep the crazies from coming out of the woodworks trying to buy it from you.
