New to me C30

I picked up a 69 C30 last weekend and in the original config, it had interesting colors. Yellow exterior and green interior. It's currently white but I was wondering if anyone has seen that color combo before?

If y'all have picture of one, I'd love to see it!

That's a good looking C/30 and some nice options!
Here's a few pics I saved of a 72 GMC that was light yellow with green interior and factory stake bed option. I would have liked to have seen that interior when it was new, I don't think it was as bad as it sounds.

Nice looking old flatbed. Flatbeds are just out n out handy to have around in my book.

Nice pics Blazerman! Thanks! I was having trouble imagining what the combo would look like and the pics help. Not as bad as I thought.

I’ve been looking for a 69 C30 for a while and was glad to find it. Eventually I’ll swap the flatbed out. The one that’s on there has a big gap between the cab and I like the look of your aluminum bed. First, I need to get it road ready!

Nice score! CST with bucket seats, SWEET! I just snagged a 72 C/30 with the NP435 4-speed. I love driving the old stick manual transmissions...Heres a pic of mine,

Nice looking C30. I have had mine for 26 years. This what it looked like the day I drove it home. 49,000 miles.

Nice ride!
Unfortunately someone swapped the buckets with a bench seat. I’ll end up switching back someday! If I can find a set.

Unfortunately the rv was trashed from leaks and age, so I removed it and now it's cab and chassis and 4x4.

Was the 4WD conversion difficult?

It must be or part of a chassis cab for commercial use.
