Do you realize that in about 30 (updated as requested) years, we'll have millions of old ladies running around with tattoos?

Now THIS is a beautiful truck! Only needs a straight-six and 3 pedals to be perfect  :) My Grandad's same-year C30 dually had the same steering wheel but was of course a very basic farm truck. With the big six, tractor gearing and 4-speed it topped out at 45 mph!

As soon as I saw the pics, I thought that's gotta be California. 

Beautiful truck.  It should get expensive.

OMG, that is almost my Dad's farm pick-up I drove when I was a teenager but 6 inline 250cu3 IIRC c/w manual 3 speed on the tree as Blueprint's grand father, except you have to delete any option /chrome visible on pictures above. I mean basic "farmer" pick-up, single vinyl covered (slippery !) wide bench, rubber mat only, no power steering, no power brake, it even hadn't an OEM unit AM radio (it was an homemade add-on), small center hub cap only, the front end & bumpers were paint in white, the truck itself was light green...

Edit: Picture from web, not my father's truck which cab top was green, not painted in white as seen below.

^^ My grandfather's was probably sold in a light metallic green, as per inside the cab colour, but had been (badly) painted in light blue, farm colours I guess at the time. Also bif vinyl bench, small rear window, 4 on the floor, AM radio and nothing else! No power steering on these huge C30 tires, white bumper in front, white grille and mirrors, flatbed with stakes.

A very plain & tougher-looking version of this web pic:

My favourite detail on these is the rear deck spoiler, quite elegant and expensive to build in such a limited run:
