Ok hear are some random pics of the underside ill get some more tomorrow when I have the wheels off. Also the rear axle is an 8 lug full float dually 60. I like that both of my MHD have full float 60's and no pick up beds.

I'm dying to know what you paid for it........

 

This is just awesome. A D60 huh? Very cool.....

 

Dunno if you saw my post in the "Dually?" thread where I made some phone calls to the companies that made those camper bodies...... None had any record of having used a Comanche platform. I'm REALLY hoping the documents you got with it will shed some light on its build and if that info could be used to make some contacts to possibly get some production numbers......

 

That thing could very well be a 1 of 1........ But at the worst, it's not likely to have very many siblings........

 

Jonesin' for details......:D

I knew I saw this before. Just looked through the random comanches found on the internet thread and on page 15 there it is.

When I read that 1 of 1 above, I thought, I've seen another.

Well on page 15, it looks like the same darn one. So, maybe it is a 1 off.

Like said, at the least, it doesn't have many siblings.

 

Very Cool!

Going through the paperwork I know that it was purchased in Portland Or. And in 1997 the CD player cost them over $425. Originally it had sheep skin seat covers. I'm going to buy some seat covers soon. I'm pulling the wheels off today ill get more underside pictures then.
