My wife has a thing for 50s, slightly rusty, baby blue single cab trucks. And it isn't horrifically far away too. I just don't know if I want to buy it.
Wow, NAPCO conversion trucks are pretty rare....

I nearly spilled my Pepsi when I saw it, and nearly spit it out when my wife liked it. I had a similar converted Dodge truck, but homemade. Had a 2001 Ram 1500 front axle, leaf spring conversion. Then I put a 47RE with some kind of transfer case, and it was perfect for that time. Sold it to a guy out in Duluth, I'm 95% sure he still has it.

I'm 10 minutes across the border from Washington state.
We don't get very much snow here.
Rain? Oh yea. But that's only during the monsoon season, mid-October to mid-April.
Whatever snow we get doesn't last more than a couple of weeks or so.
...and that snow is a heavy, wet, greasy goo. Melts quick, which equals mud. ...slides. (Our road was taken out 3x in a month!)
No salt. Minimal brine. That stuff gets washed off quick with the melting snow & the subsequent rain storms.
Prime rust-free 400's are not all that uncommon around here.
Just don't tell anybody. It's supposed to be a locals-only secret.
I used to live in Ferndale, WA. Bet you been there a few times.

If I had 10 kids that needed to go on a family vacation in Alaska with a 20’ travel trailer and carry 5 dogs and everyone’s stuff. Or to be a oversized daily driver

I think this would be perfect for both of those

Too pricey though; and I only have 2 dogs, no travel trailer, 1 child who is grown up, and no planned trip to Alaska.
I got 1 son, raised him by myself and so far taken 2 trips to Alaska. Great memories!

Yup. Been there. Many years ago.
Strangely enough, it was in both Birch Bay & Ferndale it was suggested by the local constabulary that I...ahhh...welll, put it this way...the quote was...
"We're givin' you 1/2 an hour to get outa town, boy."
They didn't appreciate my antics.
Haven't checked to see if I'm allowed back.
Driving this...
'70 SS 396/375hp L/78 4-gear. Tweaked to a bit over 475hp. 3.73's.
I'd bet that there's still a cop or two in those towns that would remember this thing. From a block away.
"It's YOU again! Damn it, son, I told ya..."

My son would like that^. He's a Nova nut, and has several ranging from needing TLC, to blown street car, to full on drag cars.

Is your 70 SS Suzuki approved?
