I remember those! They didn't really look so gentle...

Just a scarey facade. They are quite gentle unless you're trying to poach their young, who are highly prized for the supple, pliable, stain-resistance of their skins.

Probably my first exposure to Naugas...

My first experience with the Nauga was in the '60s, as my dad used to reupholster cars (and other vehicles) as a sideline. I bet that garage still smells like vinyl, 20 years later!

Very close to a time capsule, appears to have had one repaint in factory colors and a few minor changes, but excellent for '68 Custom Camper 50th anniversary reference.https://vmp.ebay.com/ebay/viewAllPho...?smid=42731089

Couldn’t get the link to work but I searched and found it on ebay. Serious Grandpa truck. I mean, not my Grandpa- he was way to cheap to order those seats but he’d have loved all the JC Whitney stuff screwed to it.

Joesjunk's '71 K 20 with 10K orig. miles. Note : The only 16" wheels available for the 20 series in the '67-'72 era, the 16" 2 piece

**IronCanine** · 08-08-2021, 02:45 PM

That is unbelievable. Thanks for posting...and Joe thanks for curating such amazing examples. Please post more pics of this one...it's a benchmark.

Edit: And you are right, the paint looks amazing.

**Ol Blue K20** · 08-08-2021, 06:26 PM

I love it!! Joe did awesome on this one...

MDFarms · 08-08-2021, 08:04 PM

Welcome to the board, That is a beautiful truck. I had talked to you on a few of your Facebook post about it.

**BlazerBill** · 08-16-2021, 09:53 PM

Here is my time capsule, was covered in cow manure, and dents. 66,000 mi. Saw Joe’s 71 4x4 above in thread, and thought that’s what mine use to look like. This truck got used!

This is my 71 all original (except the wheel covers, I have the originals stashed). Has dings and surface rust but NO rot. 250 six, 3 0n the tree, 307 rear. Love the paint stripe!
Truly a time capsule.

Sharp looking in oe black. How does it run out with that combo?
My 67 has the 250 & 3ott and was considering 3:07 gear but many said it would be a dog?
