Looks like a solid/authentic SWB/Bucket seat CST.

Re: Post Your Craigslist Finds
 

Bet it looked good when new with the Gold interior.

Re: Post Your Craigslist Finds
 

Just thinking the same thing. Wow, that one is worthy of a resto... Would love to have seen the original interior.

Re: Post Your Craigslist Finds
 

Re: Post Your Craigslist Finds
 

I agree, but other than buckets that's a pretty low option truck for a CST. Doesn't even have power steering or brakes.

Re: Post Your Craigslist Finds
 

yep, agree low optioned - I really just want to see the gold trim in a 514 red paint interior truck, don't think I've ever seen that before. CST+buckets is a nice combo, but that must've run the original buyer out of money before he could get the more practical options. Guess he just wanted to look good getting there, no matter how much work it was.

Re: Post Your Craigslist Finds
 

Now that is a truck! 427 and a four speed. My kinda' truck. My interior looked exactly like that . . . . a looooong time ago :lol: My seat and steering wheel are trashed.

He’s asking $8000. Been for sale maybe 3 weeks

Re: Post Your Craigslist Finds
 

I am just wondering if you have seen the vehicle. I would like to know more about it from a hands-on point of view. I have family in the Tahoe area and have bought trucks from out your way before.

I apologize for writing in response to a different quote from you. Thanks.

Vintage camper shell for those of you of the short fleet persuasion $300
Hard enough to find for a long bed, let alone a short! Good price assuming it's not falling apart.

And one for you lwb folks as well $150
This one a little more mid-70's era.

Re: Post Your Craigslist Finds
 

He needed a tape measure on that long bed shell

Re: Post Your Craigslist Finds
 

I requested measurements and he replied and posted them.. I thought it was an odd amount of overhang and hoping maybe for a longhorn :D

based on his description, sounded like he would know what a typical longbed would measure and maybe the camper was odd sized..

longhorn is 105" front cap to tailgate tip to tip btw..

Looks like a 70 grille to me.

Re: Post Your Craigslist Finds
 

interesting... can you tell me the differences between 69 & 70 grille ?

Re: Post Your Craigslist Finds
 

I would also like to know the difference. In any pictures that I see, they look the same but I have heard they are different and that the 1970 grille is not reproduced?

Re: Post Your Craigslist Finds
 

The inner section is slightly different. I believe the first pic below is a pic SSTim made - but it highlights the vertical separations on the 70. Also, the outer grille is either repop or NOS, but not likely original to the truck. Note the difference of the black lines between the headlight and turn signal on these the originals and the truck in question. (EDIT: added two more pics after the white truck in question. The red truck is a 69, the white is a 70.

Dave - correct, the 70 is not reproduced, and the 69 that is reproduced is often marketed as a 69-70, further confusing the issue.

Re: Post Your Craigslist Finds
 

Got it - thanks Jocko.

Re: Post Your Craigslist Finds
 

Here's a picture of the inner and outer grilles put on my '69 after an idiot slammed into the front of my truck in early 1972. Looked just like the one on the Craigslist truck. Both were genuine GM parts. I removed some of the black paint on the center bar (reduced the width of the horizontal lines and the paint adjacent to the parking turn signals) to make the outer grille look more like the original.

Based on the paperwork posted with the ad, that is definitely a '69.

Re: Post Your Craigslist Finds
 

Not to muddy the waters completely...but with regard to the inner grille for 69-70, what is reproduced is really a mash up of what came from the factory. It looks more like a 69 from a distance because it is solid silver/argent. But it does have MOST OF the raised bars embossed on the 70s. So it's sorta cast for a '70 and sorta colored like a '69.

Here's a post from our build thread that illustrates the repro version more closely:

Go to the whole thread to see how we made it look like a 1970.

Re: Post Your Craigslist Finds
 

thanks for all the info on 69 vs 70 im going to pull my hopefully 69 out and take a pic and post aprreciate all the info from all .....stay healthy

St Paul Merit Chevrolet is still in business

Re: Post Your Craigslist Finds
 

Testing

Re: Post Your Craigslist Finds
 

I agree it's a mix of 69 and 70. And... I've thought about sanding the raised bars off mine so it would be correct for my truck. I've never studied a repro inner grille, but I'm not sure it's painted correctly for a 69 either.

EDIT: Hmm, this should probably be a separate thread subject.

Here is a 69 C10 4x4, on Big Iron auction in Potter NE. Looks solid.

Re: Post Your Craigslist Finds
 

thanks very much for the replies - I learn something new every day on here. This is good news in case I ever pounce on a 70... Seems odd that they would make the replacement part with a different number of embossed (or debossed, or whatever) vertical separators, regardless of the solid coloring - kinda makes it not match either grille perfectly. Still a good thing - thanks again.

Re: Post Your Craigslist Finds
 

I always preferred the 70 insert. But, you never see them much.

Not really my definition of "Restored" although a nice truck

Re: Post Your Craigslist Finds
 

I've seen this bed in person and it's in okay shape (he is selling just the bed in this ad). Dusty was really nice, he and his father run a small auto repair business there, but he wants a bit more than what I feel his stuff worth. He has a lot of '67 - '72 parts. I bought my '80 cross-member from him for $200.00, which I thought was a deal, but when I started walking around his property and asking prices I was taken back a bit.
They do have this sweet truck there. It was in a movie, I forget which one he told me it was from, but very cool non the less.

Re: Post Your Craigslist Finds
 

Phooey - I somehow missed it was just the bed. Ugh. I guess I should've said rare bed instead of rare bird.

Re: Post Your Craigslist Finds
 

What a mess of mismatched parts on the engine and appears to be a factory A/C truck but not the proper controller in the cab?
