Someone found a lost treasure in a European storage yard

I didn’t know it survived. It’s sad that it’s in this shape, but at least it’s not a total loss. Someone needs to launch a rescue mission and get it into a museum or possibly restored.

 

*raises hand

“Me! Me! Me! Pick Me!”

But honestly it’d be better off in someone else’s hands. I’d like to see it in a museum and maybe reconditioned so it can go on tours. I don’t want it to suffer the fate of the GM Motorama buses, or Ford’s Big Red.

 

Mmmm, want to lick the candy!

Also, completely unsafe and impractical but I love the front doors and stairs leading up to the “bridge/####pit”, it’s just so different than traditional trucks. I’d like to climb up there once.

(really? The “little room on an airplane where the pilots sit” is censored? Sheesh.)

Also, $4mill? I wonder how much it would cost to scratch build one? Okay, fine, off the shelf engine, transmission and suspension unless it’s some really weird unique gauge, but to fab the chassis, body and trim? Gotta be less than $4mil right?
