It surely seems so! The story I got--and the records appear to back it up--is that the original owner passed sometime in 2010, and his best buddy bought it off the widow.

Trucks was always garaged by the original owner, and has been in a shop for the last several years, too.

It has what I believe is the original spare, bias-ply tires with an '84 date-code, and very little damage anywhere.. A small rust spot on the hood lip, and just the tiniest little bubbling along the rear fenders. I'll proabably leave it be for a while, and eventually repair the rust and have it painted, though it'll be the same color.
