I looked at this truck today as it is near me and I liked the way it looked in the ad enough to go and see it in person. The owner is pretty firm on price. I am going to pass but someone here might be looking for a patina long bed so here is a report. The A/C blew freakishly cold at its highest setting. The 5.0 idled well (although the condenser put a noticeable load on it.) It runs and drive nicely. It has a lot more get up and go and top-end than my C20. I loved the patina and history. It is an ex-AZ municipal truck with GVW8000 stenciled on each side of the bed. Wood in bed is solid. Downsides are that it is rusted through in lower sills and the front quarters and it looks like someone got funny with some bondo here and there. The left side front quarter is pretty bent at the front where it was hit at some point. The windshield has a big round crack in it like it got hit with a baseball or a rock and it needs replacing. The owner has replaced most of the trim and painted burgundy in those areas. It does has a very cool look about it and could be a cool start for a project for someone here.
No relation to seller. Just passing on the 411.
