Pretty cool, there is a similar one that has been sitting in the same spot on the way to work for at least the past 30 years.

I've seen Turbo 400's in a few one tons that were intended more for in town delivery rigs. Around here most of the flatbed rigs have 4 speeds though.

I would imagine that they special ordered the trans for the camper chassis because most folks who would want it would prefer the automatic.

I'd like to find one in good shape to redo and use as we are contemplating a small motorhome at this time to run over to some of our boat clubs gatherings when we can't take the boat.
