I have a dear neighbor, Mary, who is 101 years old. Her and her husband bought the house new in 1950 and my grandparents moved in across the street in 1972. Mary and her husband bought a 1970 GMC C25 Custom Camper special with a 350 & 4-speed stick new in 1970 to haul a camper around to some property she still owns. It got parked some time in the 80s and sat until around 2006 when another neighbor a few houses down bought it. It only had 23k miles and it's now at 73k. Pretty much everything is original. My next door neighbor, the mechanic, has maintained it for about 10 years and aside from tinkering, it's only needed a starter and the cooling system rebuilt. 6 years ago he pulled the motor to replace all the leaky oil seals and repaint it. While it was out it got a new clutch. It runs like a top.
My dad's cousin just bought it to pull her little 1969 camper around. We aren't sure what the plans are fully for it, I think she wants to keep the patina. It was originally dark green with a white roof but the AZ sun had other plans. Maybe one day it'll get a respray. Probably an interior refresh now but that'll be easy. I believe the interior is 100% original too. Unfortunately the chrome trim has been lost. Definitely going to a good home. New Michelin tires on Monday.
