Fuel line for the Southwind heater is my guess. You can just see the front of the heater in the interior photo.

That looks like a really nice truck.

Mine is for sale, I offered it first to two friends of mine, waiting for their answer. If they pass will list it on the Barn. Same owner last 33 years here in California. Excellent sheet metal has a 59 A.B. motor. starts right up runs great everything works. Funky red velvet interior but I actually really like it. Stay tuned

That silver truck is a really good price if it's as nice as it appears to be.

Is the Craigslist truck silver? It looks like a light purple on my computer.

You maybe right. My eyesight is getting really bad.

If that is the case, that may be partly the reason for the price. You really limit your market with a personalized color on a car or motorcycle.

I e-mailed the seller, he said it is a metallic gray. He doesn't have the specs on the paint.
