End of an era and kinda sad to see 'er go — this truck and a lot of the work you did was my source for inspiration, hope and part numbers. Hope it goes well over reserve. Best of luck.

Good Luck man! Well known rig for sure, one of a kind. Mine is the same year and color, wonder how far off they are on the VIN build line? Inspiring build for sure. Hope it goes crazy.

Man am I bummed to see this thing go. Right when I was in the market for a 60 series and about two weeks after I already bought one..sigh.

Calling you out on your response when I tried to acquire this myself years ago (I never thought I'd sell that 87 X-Tra Cab either...)

Good luck with the sale, excited to see you build up your Bundera.

Yeah that was pre Oddball 80. That was the big disrupter

I have a hypothesis about vintage stripes on vintage Cruisers. I expect this auction to support my hypothesis. If it does, I'd recommend @JTU get that root beer 60 to the stipe shop pronto and get 'er listed for all of the bidders that lose out on 'ole Blue.

Seems pretty quiet in my auction. Maybe it won’t sell.

624 watchers! 4 days to go, you have plenty of time. If it doesn't go its gonna be a SHOCK to the cruiser community!

I will never understand BAT. Never, ever.

Not that I can afford it, but I’m ready to sign up and bid. Such a nice, purpose built truck!

Hopefully it gets picked up by the right person.

I want to tag all the people that bid that South American stock truck
With the high lift
Up to $100k but that whole deal smelled fishy

That one had some sexy plaid seats. Your boring Scheel-Manns aren’t gonna cut it.

Maybe also invest in a black photo booth at Tilda Bogue?

You know I'm a stripe hater, but you know far better than me how to make that work!!

I hope you set a personal best with the auction, that is one sweet ride.

Don't you already have a pink booth?

And the seats don't have to be plaid because.....the headlights are.

That would be the way to go imho
