Physical vehicle evidence

Auction photographs show the restored/refinished truck and current configuration. Originality of pictured equipment is not established and no source media is reused here.

Owner or seller statements

Auction sources describe a 400 V8, three-speed automatic, dual-range transfer case, High Sierra trim, repaint, hardtop refurbishment, service work and 92,000 displayed miles. These are attributed claims or present-condition observations.

Later research
