Default 73 GMC truck and 72 camper

Planning on picking it up next week. It is teh awesome. You're jealous as hell, I can feel it:



Cost: $500 plus a shotgun.

At least I have somewhere to put my 12" Kicker L7s other than my bedroom. The 10" will do just fine in there.

Gonna paint with Rustoleum Professional. Doesn't have to look great, or even too decent. After possible camo paint and maybe some Punisher skulls, it better look somewhat cool. But it doesn't have to be perfect.

Just weekend camping, throw everything in it and just drive off when I want to camp. He knocked it down to $450 plus the NEF (Chinese Rem 870) shotgun, which I only have about $280 into it, had it a couple years, and put a couple hundred rounds through it.

I am not sure I would take off very far untill I had driven it a couple of weeks! It looks like it has been rode hard and put up wet!
Have you checked it out mechanically?

Its a 73 GMC, mechanical problems should be an easy fix. Hows the interior?

No oil dripping. 99k miles on it. Interior on the camper is great, on the truck it's still decent compared to some. Even better than my 89 Ranger.
