Looks like a 69/70 but also looks to be 50th colours?

Re: CUSTOM CAMPERS lets see them!
Great pic! Not sure on the call. Looks like ochre to me, but it has a 69-70 two tone paint scheme, so hard to say. Also looks like a Cheyenne badge, but hard to tell.

Re: CUSTOM CAMPERS lets see them!
Ok, so Jocko convinced me to post my Custom Camper Pics.. it is a work in progress. Dad bought it new in 72 with the Highlander interior. It is a Custom/20 Deluxe Camper Special. I had to sell it to an uncle 12 years ago due to some hard times and just bought it back a little over a year ago. He had it restored from the ground up and whoever did the work stripped all the chrome and badging, second tank, and AC and original mirrors. I am slowing putting it all back. It was two tone green and white. That is about all that is left to do.

Dad built that himself. Had two cars totaled on it:) Not hardly a scratch on it!:) https://scontent-dft4-2.xx.fbcdn.net...35&oe=59E89351 https://scontent-dft4-2.xx.fbcdn.net...4f&oe=59E28B86 |

Re: CUSTOM CAMPERS lets see them!
Thanks for posting the pics Dale - that's a real nice truck. Any plans to stick some of the original trim back on (side trims and nameplates, etc)? Would look great with the Custom Camper scripts on the door, the Custom Deluxe on the fenders, and the 8/350 under the front markers. Your truck was originally the deluxe two tone - white top with white in the middle. Thanks again, was looking forward to seeing this one - and worth the wait, looks real nice. Welcome to the board.

Speaking of DF2 mirrors.. Dad had just repainted the truck, it was beautiful, I was a kid about 18 years old.. I had gotten it a bit dirty and thought I would run it through a car wash.. BIG mistake.. the arms from the wash did not give like the mirrors and doors did.. ripped one completely off the door and bent it and screwed the other one up bad too.. ugh:) |
Re: CUSTOM CAMPERS lets see them!
Normally a Custom Deluxe would not have the deluxe marker lights anyway, so you chose wisely. Any pictures from when it was new to guide you to the woodgrain lower trim decision? There's an ongoing debate on here about woodgrain vs black lower trim - a Custom Deluxe would normally have black lower trim (and my Highlander Custom Camper does), but there are several members with woodgrain lower trim on their Highlanders, so it's a roll of the dice. If it makes you feel any better, my uncle washed his 77 K10 stepper, complete with black paint, white wagons, and the funky sport stripes, in his yard, then drove off with the garden hose still wrapped around the mirror braces and the door open. He drove it around with the door off for a while after that... the hose won. Of course that was Kentucky in the 70's, not sure he'd get very far with no door these days.

Ol Blue is a custom deluxe and came with woodgrain. I always thought that was an anomaly but maybe not.
