I felt this was reasonably priced at an antique store but a little more than I had on me. I love pieces like this and in hindsight probably should have got some more money and picked it up. It was actually in way better shape than it looks in the pic.

lay-away..

Make a offer,all they can say is no and sometimes they say yes.
Just don't make them made with lowball.

lay away... duh. Could have done that for sure. Loyd, price was verbal and down as low as possible, the owner was just getting ready to load it up and take it to a show. I know it's not coming back. Guess I destroyed one too many brain cells in the 70s

Nice piece, you never know, when things are meant to be. Don't be surprised if returns from the show and you are able to purchase it!

Looks like you can find this similar item on eBay now ...

There was one of these for sale at Iowa Gas. I can't remeber who had it.

You're right...same cab. The one on eBay appears to be a lot rougher, though. The one I was looking at seemed to have the correct filter on the front and lots of product in the drawers
