This is a 1965 Chevrolet K20 3/4 ton 4X4. I was told that this truck was built at the Freemont, CaliforniaGM plant then sent to Helena Montana to The Superior Fire Apparatus Companyfor the body and suspension lift and then entered service as a firebrush (chase)truck. The Superior Fire Apparatus Company made fire trucks and fire fightingrelated equipmentuntil the 1980s.I think this truck had original air conditioning, the control switches and dash vent are still there but the under the hood components (compressor, condenser etc.) are gone.I drove this truck from California to Michigan (2600 miles)with no issues and asurprisingly comfortable ride at 60 to 65 mph.There is rubber padding between the leafsof thesprings and an aluminum firewall, I'mnot sure if that was done at The Superior Fire ApparatusFactory or not. I have the original instrument panel which is included.The original motor has been replaced with a 350 cu.in. V8. The transmission is a 4 speed manual shift. The gear ratioof the front and rear differentialsis 4:57. The tires are military (37"x 12.50R 16.5LT). The original odometer reads 13,303 miles but I assume it is 113,303 miles.I recently installed anew heater core. The seats are six way electric and quite comfortable. There is a lockablemetal storage (tool)box included.Some pictures show the original wood box floor. Overall it is in good shape for its age.This truck is fun to drive and a real head turner.
