The white over dark yellow from Houston is a good looking truck for sure. I find it weird that the instrument panel looks restored but the only needle they didn't paint was the speedometer. Yes I'm nitpicking. Just seems odd to me. If you're going to the trouble to restore it. Why leave the speedometer unpainted. All the other needles appear to have been painted. Did they leave it unpainted to give the appearance that it was original and unaltered? If so, it's a fail for me.

I love the period correct camper but I don't have a heavy enough truck to put it on. Good luck with your sale. I'm sure someone will be proud to own it.

Since someone else is nitpicking I will add my favorite complaint that jumped out on me with this truck. If someone does such an overall restoration why do they still insist on painting the inside of the bed with that awful black goop instead of the original painted color of the rest of the truck? I can understand that if your truck is just a daily user you might want to cover the bed and all its dents with the bedliner stuff-- but why use it on a nice truck like this? Just wondering. I am sure it is all just personal taste. I love the color BTW.

I'm with you on the bedliner crap. I prefer a bed mat. Problem is you can't find them anymore. The last ones you could buy that fit 67-72 were actually for the 73-87 trucks. I've been look for one for my 70 GMC longbed but no luck.

Sweet 72 GMC at a great price $5999. Plus check out the original dealership.

https://portland.craigslist.org/mlt/...237256326.html

This truck was special ordered originally with 19 options. It still has the original GMC brand AM radio, original hub caps, stock 350 engine, 350 hydro transmission, disc power brakes, power steering.
Starts right up, shifts quietly and smoothly, reliable for around town, daily driver, or as a work truck. Body straight, bed in good condition.

Another really nice camper. 68 CST $9700.

https://portland.craigslist.org/mlt/...238992530.html

Very rare and vintage, I've tried to find others like it and have had no luck. Runs and drives great, interior is flawless except one little rip on the side backrest passenger side seat. CST package for 50th year C series anniversary includes powers steering. Truck Body has no dents and all glass is original and great shape. Camper body has minor imperfections given the year it was manufactured. All propane lines work to the heater and stove top elements. The only thing im not sure of is the refrigerator and possibly some of the plumbing lines. The water pump does work. Perfect for a very easy and fairly inexpensive full restoration. Truck was sent from the factory to Open Road Campers to have the chassis mounted camper attached. I would love to hold onto it but I don't have the time or money for it and have just had a death in the family recently. Willing to negotiate and answer any questions. Erik

Ugh... none of these campers have factory air..

[HO455]

Was air conditioning even available in a C30? Plus that's alot of volume to keep cool. GM may have decided it wasn't worth the trouble as not enough people would be willing to pay for it. I was a kid in Nevada back then and I remember lots buildings that didn't have A/C, ( unless it was a casino) there were lots of swamp coolers. People knew it as an expensive luxury.

Just thinking of air for the cab, the camper would have had a unit on top or would have been upgraded later in life.. I have not seen one of these campers with AC in the cab yet..

72 C20 Custom Deluxe with a 402 and Highlander "C" pkg (originally white/med blue deluxe two tone with GRAY plaid interior - interesting ext/int color combo, I've never seen - long gone on this truck though. With some trim re-introduced to the truck and an interior re-do, one would have a very nice, and unique, Highlander on his hands). $12.5K
