I am going to tease you guys. Here is what I found when I went out to Mike(70 rs/ss) last year to pick up a burb I bought from him.
It is a factory built 4 door 68 3/4 truck. They built it and 5 others for GM's Mesa/Arizona testing area.
4 full doors, factory custom built, all the window work normally and it wasn't built out of a burb.
When I saw that Truck in one of the mags, I had to smile, because of this one.
It has factory VIN and a serial # by Fisher body.
I am going out in May to pick it up. He has 2 others, one he is keeping, the other hit hard in the front. So I am going to pull the cab off the frame and put it in the back of this one.
I kept this a secert from you Mike because I was going to visit!! LOL
