Bought this loaded CST 50th today. 2 owners before me. Have receipts back to 82 on it. Gonna fix a few things on it, ordered the 5 lug conversion for the rear end, have some 16x6 5 lug steelies to put on it. Plus a few other minor things

**68350** · 04-28-2017, 08:03 PM

After wash

**68350** · 04-28-2017, 08:05 PM

Few more

100%Chevy · 04-28-2017, 08:15 PM

Mine has the optional wood bed floor too.
Wish I had the power brakes!
Gonna be a nice truck.
Mike.

**leddzepp** · 04-28-2017, 08:21 PM

Sweet! I just did a disc brake conversion on mine last week, including a 5 lug rear end swap.

**68350** · 04-28-2017, 08:25 PM

I'm pretty glad he did the hard part, the front swap. The rear will be a few hours of work and it'll be ready to rock n roll!

**68bowtie** · 04-28-2017, 09:12 PM

mywifestruck · 04-28-2017, 09:49 PM

Is that the one that was on Ebay?

**68350** · 04-28-2017, 10:56 PM

No this was a local truck. I almost bought it around 2005 but didn't. I have always kept tabs on it over the years

**68350** · 04-28-2017, 11:03 PM

I'm watching that one also. Not nearly as optioned as this one

Orange67 · 04-28-2017, 11:04 PM

What is up with the "camper nameplate" option? Did I read that wrong? Your truck is awesome!! The options are unbelievable!

Nevermind, just looked at the pics again... Holy crap!!! 1/2 ton cutsom camper CST 50th!!

**68350** · 04-28-2017, 11:05 PM

That was a custom camper emblem on the front fender. The fairly large rectangular one as seen in the pics

welcome to a great club!
The golden anniversary club!
It's a really cool truck you have there.
I drove mine cross country and had nothing but I great time.
I hope yours brings you awesome memories as well.

**special-K** · 04-29-2017, 06:08 AM

CST/10 50th Anniversary Custom Camper! That's a mouthful. One year-only celebration edition to Chevy trucks as well as, I think, a four year only Custom Camper option...on a top-of-the-line truck with A/C and bucket seat option. Not too shabby

northerngmc · 04-29-2017, 12:29 PM

Welcome to the club.

Any idea what factory bucket seat covers looked like on a 50th?

I have found a set of buckets that I am trying to buy and have recovered.

35boulder · 04-29-2017, 01:09 PM

Nice purchase. Agree w above post on the options list. Very nice.

ElKotze · 04-29-2017, 01:24 PM

Wow, look at that SPID! Turbo 400, 3.73 Posi! AC and power brakes! Still a killer truck today, but can you imagine back in '68? One fine Pick-Up, like a camaro with a bed...

**HO455** · 04-29-2017, 03:00 PM

Great truck! The only thing it is missing is a part in a Tequila commercial.

**68350** · 04-29-2017, 09:01 PM

Thanks for posting the pic. I'm away from home so couldn't. I will definitely be going back to stock seat covers one day
