There was one at Tulare in 99. I'd have bought it on the spot, but the owner
wouldn't sell. He'd just bought it for 1500 bucks. Side compartments were
just plain cool.

I've seen that one, too. It's at the Laughlin Casino in the automobile
museum. The owner needs to be shot for the half assed job he did prepping it
for the museum. Very sloppy paint job. They spray painted right over the
chrome on the power steering ram. The bondo is flaking off. on the tailgate.
The list continues.
