Squarebody stepper shell I saw while cruising cl this morning. https://dallas.craigslist.org/dal/pt...725043271.html

Here is an old Topper I got for free, painted it same color as truck, and also painted the smoke windows white. Put it on to keep the bed dry from rain, this is my summer truck so it's parked high and during winters.

Heres ours before we took the camper shell off... Kinda looks like Farm Truck

Here is the Caravan topper I just bought and installed on my K20. I REALLY like it!

Awsome windows, just at the right light, looks like you are following a alien, pass the bud,dude,lol

**special-K** · 02-16-2019, 12:00 AM

I could see a cat's face painted on that. Never seen van doors like that.

Seeing an Arizona truck reminds me of the K/10 shorty I had when I lived in Flagstaff

That truck is a beauty! Cheyenne trim?

I sent an email to the guy and said if he didn't sell it, I would buy it this summer. With work that is the only time I have to come grab it, or have a buddy get it for me. It'd look great on my 72 shortbox 4x4 that will get repainted back to its original dark olive green and white deluxe two tone.

Yes it would look good. looking a again I'm taking notice of the solid sides with single cat eye window and snazzy two-tone division. Truly custom ordered to suit, I'd think.

That K/10 was a '71 Custom Deluxe 350/4spd, posi, a/c, tach, black interior with Sidewinder winch. That is exactly how I bought it.

Here’s my 1969 GMC 1500 sporting it’s period correct topper. TAR-HEEL is the manufacture. It is aluminum over a wood frame, wood paneled interior, 110v hook-up for the interior lights, two cabinets at the top of the front, crank open windows and vent. Cool clearance and marker lights that come on with the truck headlights. I really like the vintage tourist stickers including the Southern 500 25th Anniversary race!

**Stephen717** · 05-14-2019, 09:05 AM

So I finally got my new bed and included was an Airesman cap, I'll get pics of it this evening but I was wondering if anyone has any information on this company as I can't find anything on them. Any help would be greatly appreciated and I will get pictures of it later today. Until I moved the bed back to the shop it had had the top on it. I'm guessing since late 72 or early 73. I'm missing the tailgate though

**Austinjay** · 05-14-2019, 09:19 AM

This topper was headed to the scrap yard but i decided to put it on and see how i liked it. Glad i saved it! Its nothing special but i kinda like the way it looks. Planning on taking the kids on a weekend camp trip with it.

I like the doors on the side.

**special-K** · 05-14-2019, 06:33 AM

Cool truck, topper, stickers, and more! before even reading your post I was going to ask for pictures of the stickers/decals. I have a thing for the decals from back when. I have the era correct faded Harley elongated bar & shield on my K2500 slider

70 C20 Custom Camper. First time I've had the cap on in at least 3 years. Had to reinforce the corners as a lot of the welds have broken. Planning on taking it camping next week. Really not enjoying having the cap on. It cuts down on visibility A LOT.
