69 burb sounds great! is it a 4x4 or 4x2? 1500 or 2500?

everything on this truck is in such nice shape for how old it is. I would call it the time capsule!

It took us about two hours though getting the 40 year old tires off! But now they look so nice itīll be tough to not mess them up mounting the tires again (new ones).
This is also a unique combination that I thought was cool even before I knew they actually built a few of those.

I got confirmation from GM Heritage Cnter that with the V8 they only built 41 total. (68 total in ī68). And the guy mentioned with the manual 4 speed and the PTO winch it might have been less than a handfull that were built that way. This one is almost museum worthy!
