• 1st family owned 40 years.

• This was originally purchased in Vancouver, B.C., and, from what I could ascertain, used in the B.C. interior before coming to Alberta, to live rurally once again. It was always privately owned.

Vehicle is currently located in Calgary, Alberta, Canada

• (about 3 hours north of the border).
• It is domestic build, considered antique status, and... FREE TO TRAVEL WITHOUT RESTRICTION.
• (Ebay does not have provision for people with multiple residences).

• There is an incredible absence of corrosion considering this truck's age.
• Asides from factory paint peel problem across the hood, the paint is in very decent condition. Please examine the photos. There is barely evidence of gravel roads, despite the absence ofmudflaps (or holes indicating previous installation of such).
• I chose not to have the hood repainted. Personal decision. Although not perfect, it's perfectly original.

• Also, the truck is in incredible overall condition, considering it's super heavy dutyconfiguration.
• Although very few of these now-collectible trucks were built in this configuration, FAR fewer survived;

• This truck retains most it's factory originality, and has never been compromised.

• I would categorize this as a "survivor" collectible.
• Only minor restoration work ever done was:
• Refinishing of all 6 wheels to original. (Sandblasted to bare metal, then repainted).
• Chrome lug nuts..

• Hagerty Collector Insurance values these era "squarebody" Chev/GMC trucks amongst the highest and fastest value risers forinvestment. Their rating is 99/100. Vehicles with a 50-rating are holding stagnant, anything under is depreciating, while anything above is appreciating. Once again, these are rated 99.

• Furthering it's collectibility, is it's rare configuration.
• 1-ton, regular cab, dually, Four wheel drive.
• Additionally, it is also the "Camper Special".
• Factory engine oil cooler, dual batteries, extra large trans. oil cooler, super heavy duty everything.

• Drivetrain consists of it's:
• Factory equipped 400 small block Chevy engine,
• Near-indestructible Turbo 400 automatic transmission,
• Strongest-of-the-strong New Process 205 transfer case,
• Massive Dana 60 front differential,
• And giant 14-bolt (with bolt-in pinion) rear differential.

• Nothing fancy, nothing intricate... Just a venerable checklist of the heaviest duty and simplest options available.

• These trucks were as simple as can be, and tough as they ever came. They were long-lasting, nearly maintenance-free, and phenomenally cheap to repair.

Although this is a Custom Deluxe model, it was factory ordered with the upgraded Scottsdale trim package.
Because of otherpurchases, I am limited to juggling indoor storage space on a value-priority basis.
Please refer to our feedback... You will see how I have changed down our little collection and, you will see over a dozen comments from overjoyed buyers of other collector vehicles. My wife and I have liquidated quite a few cars last year, and the year prior. Thesevehicles went to happy new collectors across the United States, and destinations as far as Germany, Holland, New Zealand, and several to even theMiddle East.
Being domestic built, and over 25 years in age, means this truck isexempt from any import/export restrictions. It is a free to travel as a bird. If you buy this truck from us, my wife Sophia will be happy to take care of everything shipping related for you. She's developed some excellent contacts and become very good at this. Asides from taking care of the bank transfer, you'll hardly have to lift a finger.
Now, shy of writing an encyclopedia-type description, I think I've covered everything. If there's anything I've missed, or anything you would like to ask, please do not hesitate to write. I look forward to helping. I will offer my private email, just because sometimeseBay messages getinadvertently delayed. It is bravohomes@rocketmail.com. If you would like to speak in person, please let me know and we can even arrange that. Good communication is pivotal to happy dealings! I encourage discussion.
One last thing... NO ZERO-FEEDBACK buyers PLEASE. If you have zero-feedback, and would like to bid, please contact me first with your intentions. We've been defrauded several times. With one exception (an FBI agent who bought our Jeep "Jethro"), every single zero-feedback buyer has been insincere and left me having tore-list.
As a final-final-final thought....We are taking a big chance bylisting this truck UNRESERVED. I am hoping that it narrows down the bidder pool to only super-serious and genuine buyers. Please, please... Write to me, call me, message, email. I will reply or answer quickly, informatively, and happily. Don't worry about being bothersome.... I'm always up for some "car-talk" with a fellow enthusiast. Your bid is a contract to buy; not to consider, reconsider, and then ignore. I'd rather answer honestly and describe accurately than have a "misunderstanding" afterwards. I cannot stress enough... Look at the feedback comments from people that bought from us. I promise to be Mr. Helpful for you too !!!

***You'll see that all communication is constantly validated and acknowledged*** We are not professional car sales people but, I've found this works very well. As such.....I am very adamant about this procedure, and will NOT DEVIATE.
It is so easy and works so well. If, for any reason, you cannot oblige to this little system, we will assume that something isn't "right". Remember, your bid is a contract to buy.
