Awesome! I love how that camper completely fills up the bed all the way to the gate! I would love to see some pics of the inside of that camper and inside of the truck if you have some.

I did a little judicious scraping and still couldn't tell. I prefer the white/orange/white/orange style, but would rather make it look original if I could. I DO remember that the 1971 trucks came that way, as I started working for a Chevy dealership right out of high school, in June of 1970. So the '71 model year trucks would have come out a couple of months later.

I met my wife in 1980, and got married in 1981. 1980's the first time I saw the truck, and as I say, I dimly recall that it was white at the rockers. We just got back from exotic Oxnard, CA, celebrating our 32nd anniversary. I'll have to dig into this some more.

Oh, yeah...my FIL put that grille in there and that's one thing I want to change out for stock. I've never liked it that way.

I am the same way about wanting it to look as original as possible most of the time. In this case though, I think I would do the white/orange/white/orange and either put a 71/72 grill back in and no one would know or put a 69/70 grill back in and 99% would never know.:lol:

I'll be getting the '70 grille one of these days. I happen to think that the lower part being white like original that, in this case, says "truck".
The white/orange/white/orange to me says "pretty", which I like on a woman, but not on my truck.

I'll get some photos of the cab interior and the insides of the camper shell eventually, but I'll make them in a new thread, so the new guys don't keep getting written over. Lots of cleanup and work on the interior and inside the camper, but I got it for free, so I can't complain too much...except free means he died to give it to me. Bummer, on that account, he was really a nice guy.

It's the 1% that eats your lunch, true. I fear that I've already tossed some original parts that were unique to the Custom Camper, like the under-hood switch for the camper's deep drain battery. Oh, well. I'll use LED lights in the new camper, and won't need the deep drain battery, anyway.

Yeah, I ain't worried about them either tho. :lol: A man's truck is his to do with as he pleases. Noone else has to like it. I like the original look but in my case a year newer grill or paint scheme does not take away too much. If I ever get the money and get around to it, I think I'm going to leave my grill '69 and go with the '71/'72 two tone paint scheme.

Here are my 70s:

1970 Custom/20 and a 1970 Camaro Z28.

The C/20 is a daily driver, but the Z only takes trips around the yard (so far).

Oh, man. I love that '70 Z-28, and that truck has the paint setup I should have. That '69 Camaro is close to my dream- an Indy Pace Car model. I had a chance to buy one in '74 and passed on it :waah:. '69 SS/RS 396 4 speed rock'n'roller Camaro. I ended up with a Camaro RS with a 327 and a 4 speed, black over hugger orange.

Hmm, quote didn't quite work out. I'm referring to the truck and Camaro in the previous post, as well.

Thanks, I'm a big fan of these trucks and 1st and 2nd gen camaros. Here's another pick of the Z/10 Indy Pace Coupe.

Thanks. I'm seriously considering painting the truck to match the car (without the stripes of course).

oh lord. That is such a gorgeous car. I have always wanted a 69 SS clone with an LS motor as a daily driver. One day maybe.

OM nom nom! I should have bought that convertible that the Chevy dealer I worked for in '72 had on the used car lot. A paltry $3200.

It looks the same when you are up close but when you stand back it reflects the light a little different. Again great looking truck!

Re: How about some pics of 67-72 Part II
 
No. I did NOT know that! Thank YOU! I purchased the truck relatively recently and have made lots of improvements, some things I've let slide because they were 'presentable' and lower on the priority list than.. say A/C or tires/wheels. That trim annoys me but like you said, when I'm next to it I don't realize it so much. I like to polish aluminum (there's a lot of it in that picture) and I thought that someday soon I'd strip and redo all the trim - maybe I can improve it without so much work. Thanks for the tip.

Square_78 02-23-2013 09:07 PM

Re: How about some pics of 67-72 Part II
 
Yeah the beveled end of the trim goes to the front. Its just the door pieces that are like that, so it doesnt catch the fender when you open the door. Ive seen a lot of trucks with it mounted upside down. They are easy to mix up because they are the only two interchangable pieces. Easy fix tho. Pop off the door panel and take the nuts off the studs holding it on.

Got it, thanks. Seems different sites use different software. Another forum I'm on, it does that automatically. Not that I'm complaining.

one shot from when I first bought my 71 about a year ago, think I posted it here previously. Two (phone) shots from earlier this week. She has been in a friends body shop for 5 months now and I had to move for work days after, I am getting her back next week and can't wait to dig in...
