Definitely something that should be saved. Someone with more money than sense must have let it sit like that. These were premium camper machines and surely would be a big hit with vintage camper collectors. I wish I could jump on it, but couldn't stick it inside or come close to starting work on it any time soon.

This is a 1974 gmc big narly dump truck...



Whenever I see those big old COEs, I wonder what it would be like to shorten it up and build it like the old Jeep FC pickups. Maybe even a 4x4 conversion with 2.5 ton military running gear...
No picture? Is this the tilt cab like the white one above?

Sure can't see much in that ad. Real enthusiastic about selling, ey? It does appear to be decent and it would be perfect for me. Nice beefy little dumper a skid loader could load easily.
