I agree. The quality built into these vehicles is hard to match, if not impossible. Most trucks of this vintage were not given a pampered life, it is a treat to see one of these unrestored survivors pretty much the same way it looked like back in '62. These time capsules that have been preserved are in a special unique class. There is a lot of original trucks still out there, but not a lot of "excellent condition" original trucks. After seeing the Lambrecht prices, I'll take a indoor 50 year old 21,000 mile over an outdoor 50 year old 4.5 mile anyday.
