Here's a local Albuquerque, NM auction that I stumbled across.

https://dcauctionservices.hibid.com/...n-4-11-21-6pm/



current bid $575


current bid $195


current bid $22.50

They're looking kinda rusty for southwest desert rats, although the blue one does appear to have a bit more promise than the others. The stainless grille trim on that '48 in the bottom pic would be worth the buy in.

They have "patina", that's worth a lot. Clear coat over it and throw in a SBC and you have a $30K truck. All you have to do is find a rich old guy with a 20 year old babe hanging off his arm and you got yourself a buyer. At least that's how it works on the TV shows

Easy $90K in a month, I say go for it!

Thanks for posting. Don’t need another truck but since it’s local I may throw some bids in on some “loaded” tool boxes

There is some neat stuff in the auction catalog. I've never seen a Mattel Power Shop before, very cool... https://dcauctionservices.hibid.com/...rts-up?cpage=3

For those wanting to keep an eye on Bobby's trucks, here's links to their pages. He was holding out on us that the black and white truck in the top pic had a new engine.

My cousins had one when we were kids, I think it also included a lathe, or at there were additional accessories that could be added.

That '73 Tow Low camper would be a fun project as a gut job. I expect it's not going to go for much more than scrap value, although I really don't know much about the value of vintage campers.

...After fighting with some bend "C" clamps today, I'm pretty tempted to log in and make some bids.
I'm afraid I'd get "auction fever" and end up buying all sorts of stuff I don't need......I'm just going to pretend its not happening and try to not think about it
