after a few waxings and lots of washes. this is how she looks. originally Light Medium blue with white roof and white bumpers and factory lower side moldings. hoping to have her back to factory stock one day. only brought her for 400 bucks. she runs and drives like a champ. have all of the paperwork and numbers matching 327 and TH400 transmission too. :)

I've had a thing for Custom Campers for a long time. I've always liked camping and I love GM trucks. So,the two just came together and at one time I had five,a '70 C/30 CST 157",a '71 C/20 Cheyenne w/camper,a '72 K/20 Cheyenne Super,a '72 K/20 Highlander,and a '72 K2500 Sierra. I've also had two Camper Specials:a '78 C30 Scottsdale and an '84 K/30 Silverado. Those are cool,they have teepees on the b-pillar. My '92 K3500 SLE has the camper package,too.

No, it was actually silver with and off white. I believe I am the 4th owner, and the second owner is the one who painted, and the hood ornament, and debadged it. It now says "Cool Truck" on the fender with a 3/4 Ton badge underneath it on the drivers side, and I just got a grille bowtie for it last year. I wish it still had the Custom Camper emblems though, they are pretty neat looking.

It looks like Daddy Brim's truck in post 2 could be a cousin to mine:lol:.

haha cool! have you ever checked to see it the previous owner bondo'd the holes? if so you could pop out the holes and find some of those emblems and put them back on. what are your plans for it? gonna remove the hood oranament? are you keeping the 71 72 bumper? and did your truck have lower side molding?

Its just got rivets in the fender holes, but I don't know if I will ever get any emblems for it or not. I am leaving the hood ornament on there, I like the thing and lots of my friends ask me if I made it because they know I am artistic. I am not sure if it had side molding on it , I just know that it was silver and off white originally. I have the original bumper, but its got a big push pad on the front. I will probably end up getting a chrome 67-70 bumper for it though, I like them better. I have had the truck for 4 years now and I am going to have to get working on it soon, but it is my daily driver so I have to get something else to drive first. I would just leave it as is because I don't have to worry about the paint getting chipped or anything, but the rockers are gone, it is rutting at the driprail on the right side, the fenders are rusting out, and the wood bed is almost completely gone. I just hope when I get it redone I don't end up making it too nice to the point where I am afraid to use it.

well when you make it and you mess up JUST LEAVE IT there will be flaws that wont make it really nice. and you can still let it get a little messed up

Re: CUSTOM CAMPERS lets see them!
 
Forgive me for asking, but when does it make it a 'Custom Camper'?
I always thought that my truck was a Custom Camper because it has the camper wiring option listed on the glovebox door, but the fender badges only say 'Custom/20'.
Is there more to it?

Cya,
Edmond
