They should have used a real 45 bed... tail lites suck... disc brakes with a drum master... much better alternative booster mounting than that...

More Info

There is more information here about the guy selling this truck (and also the troopie, I think).

https://forum.ih8mud.com/chit-chat/617788-ethical-dilemma-20.html

I love the claim to have spent $131,000 on the troopie restoration.

Also just noticed that there is no reserve on the troopie, that's pretty gutsy after spending $131,000.

There will be someone along soon to state that the dog leash was not standard that year...

I'm heading down there on Saturday, want me to throw in a proxy bid for you?

There isn't any reserve on either of the vehicles. I'll be down there on Saturday, and Brett will be as well. If I see him, I'll chat him up. The photo album he has on his FB page of the Troop is pretty impressive, IMO.

Jeff, no need to drive all the way to Houston for a unique truck. There's one right here in Austin, already blinged out and ebay ready. Take it home for only $900.

Why yes, I believe I do.

That's just Shoal Creek hipster art.

Nah, not buying anything. My next fun car will be a '66-67 Nova, but I'd need to get rid of something; I have been asking the wife to park in the driveway for a few years now, and she has declined.

The FJ45 Pickup sold for $46K.

The FJ45 Troop sold for $42K.

The Griswold wagon didn't sell, with a high bid of $35K.
