it's a beauty what's the story? got more pics?

Got lots of regular pics. But not loaded on computer yet. The story: I lived in Tennessee at the time, a farmer was using it for a hog house.(Yes,for pigs to live in.) The front cap was demolished. Lucked up and found a nice pickup front cap, local.
Everything was sandblasted and primed with etching primer. I used an 80's Chevy pickup running gear, 350 engine and Turbo trans. Installed an inverter for 120 volts, had TV,VCR,AC,Power brakes,Power steering,Tilt wheel, custom interior, with captians chairs, couch, sink with running water. Rides and drives like a dream. Went on many vacations with it. Reason for the Dry Goods logo, I was in the wholesale clothing buisness at the time.

Looks really nice,is it a 4x4 ?
I'd like to see the interior of it.

Nice ride! I'll second Tim - would love to see interior shots!

I will dig out the photos and try to scan them to my computer. No, its not 4x4, but does look like it. Guess the way the body sat on the frame and big tires makes it look 4x4.
As to the interior, I kept the dash all original, with an under dash AC unit from something I found at the junkyard. The cargo area was customized similar to the way they used to do new vans.
Thanks for the comments.
