Tahoe & Texas Truckin'
Phillip Trella of South Lake Tahoe, CA is the newest owner of this Greenbrier. He purchased it from Garry Parsley of Cleburne, TX in June, 2005. Garry had purchased it from Frank Sawberger of Roanoke, TX in December, 2004. Frank previously purchased this rig from Bill Wells. Bill gave some history on the vehicle in 2000:
"This van has passed through 4 or 5 people in our local club. It has not been on the road in over 20 years. It belonged to a fellow named Joe Burch of Dallas, who kept it in a Corvair junkyard he owned. During this time it developed cancer of the floors, due to the deluxe floormats and bad seam sealer in the roof seams. I am currently welding in replacement metal. It will be receiving a complete restoration."
This Greenbrier is equipped with RPO E-85 (left-side doors, making it an 8-door model), RPO K47 (oil-bath air cleaner), and RPO Z60 (Custom equipment). It has a 110 HP engine and a 4-speed transmission.
