I'm not interested in buying it, and have no reason to doubt, as those were rare, but I wonder how he got that 270 number.

Cool find! Too bad it's not less rusty, otherwise I might have bid.

Good questions since I have never seen, and have heard, that truck production numbers by model are not available.

I haven't found definitive data and did come across this reference http://home.znet.com/x1937/canx.htm

Suggests 570. It is a rare piece.

Looks to be in great shape. Nice find.
I think you need to buy it because you will have that Burb finished in no time.
