Here is one for ya: About 4 years ago, I went to a farm to look at a 64 Crewcab W-200 sweptline. It was an ex air force truck,still sat on factory 17.5split rim wheels! it had 34K miles on it and the body was near perfect. It was a complete truck. The engine turned and it was parked cause it was smoking. Well it needed brake and clutch master cyl rebuilds and good to go..The engine was a slant six and it had a 4 speed. The price was $150. I woulda bought it, but my folks threw a fit about it, so I never got it. I was 16 at the time. I went back last year to see if it was still there and the guy had sent it to the crusher! Oh man.. What a horrible way to go! Waaaaa!!!
