Tell me what you think!:

Also should I take the camper off??
Any ideas on where I can get a coolant reservoir for it? my has a crack.. would like a NOS or similar.

Thanks

 

Sweet Find..Looks good rite down to the vintage cap. Is that the coolant overflow or W/W bottle?

 

Thanks! Coolant overflow/reservoir.

Do you think that the camper shell was a dealer add-on?

 

VERY NICE !! i'd leave it the way it is the camper is period correct too .

 

I don't know about it being a dealer add on,but it is period correct..Hell just for the cap w/curtains lasting this long is amazing in it self..

 

Very cool find, I would pull off the camper off but thats just me. It is nice how it all goes together. But it's your truck do as you like.

 

Looks good. Great find. I too would lose the camper but it does look time correct and a lot of people like those trucks with the camper on it. here is you a windshield wiper reservoir on ebay:

+1 on William. Whether you leave the camper on or not is your call, could have some value either way. You gotta tell what you paid for this gem.

Want to sell it, take it to Carlisle Pa. next spring. There aren't any trucks like that in the north east, or put it on Ebay.

Really nice!! I've been looking at similar trucks on ebay, and there are very few as nice as yours...

 

GREAT LOOKING TRUCK. My opinion - I think the camper top detracts from the appearance.

 

Wow, looks like a time capsule! I'd off the camper too. It's in great shape itself and would probably bring some cash your way from someone who wanted one for their rig, that is of'course, if YOU don't want it... Looks great either way though.

 

like that color!!!

 

that is a sweet truck. I am not much of a camper shell person either, but it's your choice, but you bought a very clean truck. VERY NICE no doubt about that.

 

I would not sell the camper shell if you decide to take it off. It will be worth more money with it on if you ever decide to sell it later on!

 

The color is "New Lime" and Wimbledon White.

The reservoir is available repro in the aftermarket and looks exactly like the one I have on my 68 Mustang:
