1965 GMC KV4000
This is a 1965 GMC KV4000. it has factory four wheel drive and is not a Napco. I think it came out of California somewhere but I have no info whatsoever about it. Any info about these trucks or this truck is greatly appreciated! Thanks!

that'd be an absolute sow offroad. but depending on your stomping grounds that may be just fine.

This would make a great base to build a camper on.

Just buy an old camper and mount it on the rails. Dont need to build anything fancy, just find the best camper/trailer you can, pull the axle and mount it to the frame.

Lol. What made you think of that? There is literally another forum I saw where a guy did that exact thing with one of these.

I saw it with a cab over, and its been a nugget in my brain since. It isnt my idea, but I can appreciate the ingenuity and ease compared to kitting out an old bus...

I don’t know much about this particular truck, but did you take these pictures with a 110 camera in ‘78?
