'68 c10 50th Anniversary Custom Camper
Made a mad dash up to Southern Oregon yesterday and picked this little rig up.
Has a 307 that runs pretty decent with a NP235 4 speed. Drives good, solid and tight. Other than someone adding a power steering pump and box it look original and unmolested. Story is the previous owner had bought this truck a few months back from the family of an older gentleman that had passed away. Truck had always been stored under a car port and was one of a few that the family sold. Still has the original radio and floor mat, along with the owners manual. Ivory & White paint with parch cloth trim on the SPID, pose traction rear. Someone painted the exterior a copper color and black where it should be white (Ivory). Seat dosent look like it is og to exact specs but pretty clean and none the less. For what I paid I am EXTREMELY happy! Now what to do with it. Might just get the black gone with white and slap it on my '70 4wd chassis!! http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j2...sm3wxzngj.jpeg http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j2...psimqvfrci.jpg http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j2...ps8hetuwev.jpg http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j2...psg0p6ja1x.jpg http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j2...psvf52zcxe.jpg http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j2...psbdapdo2r.jpg |

Nice buy, show us your SPID! Not a lot of 1/2 custom campers floating around out there (but it was definitely an option for a 68 C10).

Looks like a pretty solid truck , I'd put it right back to stock condition and sit back while the value soars over the next few years .:chevy:

Re: '68 c10 50th Anniversary Custom Camper
I like, and you didn't even need to change the fender badge. Still applies.

The 37's are coming off and going to put some 35's on her. Just a little too tall for my liking.
Not sure if I'll have to replace the springs, I think 4 inch springs with 35's would be juuuuuust right! |
Re: '68 c10 50th Anniversary Custom Camper
What are you going to do with those 37s?

Re: '68 c10 50th Anniversary Custom Camper
Finally getting the '68 ready for paint. Its been a loooong wait!!!
https://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j...psdh2k8dia.jpg Not digging' the '49ers colors.......copper and black no more. Going to go with the stock 50th Anniversary colors, gold and white. https://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j...psm5gnyqrg.jpg https://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j...psxsjxpplt.jpg Changed the 37" Pro Comps for some 35" BFG's and probably going to change the leaf springs to drop the height just a few inches. It sits a little higher than I want. https://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j...pslllfzmdo.jpg https://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j...psrloja2id.jpg Replacing front windshield, has the sun discoloration, along with new back glass and all new side, rear cab and tailgate trim from Mar-K. Not sure if I'm going to need to replace all the tail lights, headlights, etc. Wanting to replace the eyebrow trim and grille trim pieces.......Evidently Mar-K doesn't make these moldings. Anyone have any advice on where to source these parts? |

Re: '68 c10 50th Anniversary Custom Camper
I'm not liking the black rims, it's too much black and dosen't go with the gold/white.
Any suggestions? https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/...b6feca7a_n.jpgIMG_5253 by horsepwr, on Flickr |
