Finally someone went and did it stretched a bed.
I like the idea and $25k is not crazy for that.
I think 25 grand is off the rails for that. Its not any more useful than any other 4x4 one ton, and its actually worse because its so long. Borderline unparkable with a trailer. Impossible yo turn around. Its a crappy out dated limo.

Not to mention how much of the GVWR capacity is eaten up by the longer frame and bed? That's gotta add up. Looks like that truck is still expected to move all of that with the 235hp 454 and 1960's transmission...not to mention the brakes from the 70's.
No, I never said sketchy...but certainly never intended to be used under THAT truck with all it's extra weight.

Nice truck, door and seat and dash color is not correct, but nice truck.
I might be wrong here . . . . .
but dosnt the vehicle data plate go on the cab door jamb and NOT the door itself ?
something smells a tad bit funny here
oh ya but does look super nice .

No the data plate is on the door, the vin plate is on the door jam.
No, the data plate goes on the door. Too big to fit on the jamb.
Looks like a decent truck. Price is high.

Lots of change but I suppose we could loosely compare to a used duramax single cab diesel; rare truck.. If that CUCV is as clean as it appears it'd be a good option for you southern guys.. Even if treated up here in the NorthEast it'd turn into a rust ball in 4-5 years.. If it had some creature comforts like a set of period correct and upholstered captains chairs or a 40/20/40 split + a head liner it'd be a great year rounder and take you many miles. Seems like it's be geared ok w that OD tranny... Anyway, personally I like solid axle trucks.
