Wench and fuel ejection included. That's a rare bargain.

I want pics and performance specifications on the wench before making an offer..

Guess what followed me home to Prescott! This thing looks like it has spent its life in a barn. Not 100% perfect but darn clean. Spent the last couple of days cleaning it out and up.

The camper is a K5 Hallmark floor plan. Neat thing is it came with the build sheet and receipts from Mr. Ward himself ( Founder of Hallmark) It also came with all the service records for every major repair or minor repair.

You got a heck of a deal there. Is the wench attractive?

 

[Cummins_expo]

The Wench :sombrero:is some weird old school Cyclone winch. It mounts under the bumper and winds vertical not horizontal ( make sense?)

Sounds to me like it may be a Vic Hickey "Sidewinder" Winch, they were sold in the 70s and early 80s. Vic Hickey was a GM designer/engineer who left GM and went out on his own to develop and sell off road products, primarily for GM 4x4s. Hickey modified vehicles were pretty cool back in the day and featured on a lot of magazine covers.

If it is indeed a Hickey Sidewinder Winch, you have struck gold in terms of rarity, I doubt there are many of those left.

I have been eye balling one of thise for my k5 but i wonder how much it would affect the top heavy feeling? Do you feel like it's stable and can handle some decent off road use? I live in Mesa so maybe we can meet up some day?

This K5 came with a book of receipts and manual's... It is indeed a Hickey Sidewinder Winch.. I need to test it and see if it still work I would assume so considering everything else does.

Another cool find is an old PERFECT condition Griswold cast iron skillet from the 1930's It looks like new.

A HUGE puffy down jacket from some small no longer around clothing manufacturer from the 70s I think. All other kinds of fun stuff. Its like buying an old house and tearing down the walls only to find Americana history.
