Picked up a new rig on CL this morning! 1969 C30 Motorhome
I saw this on CL in SD and just had to have it. It's a 1969 C30 Open Road motorhome. 350/th400/4.10's. It's been nicely face lifted inside and is just a solid piece. The PO delivered it 90 miles to my house too! The deck was the selling point I think.

Good thing you saw it first. I don't think I could say no to those flamingos!

Re: Picked up a new rig on CL this morning! 1969 C30 Motorhome
CONGRATS - you are sure to enjoy that thing - very good truck under it (even with autotrans), although those Open Road campers were not as nicely finished/well-made as some others of the era. Then again, you never will wear it out. NICE DECK !!!

Re: Picked up a new rig on CL this morning! 1969 C30 Motorhome
Now that is neat. Congrats.
My driveway is rather made for another vehicle. I have decided it should be a panel or a Burb but having a motorhome would be pretty cool. |

I had a 66 c30 Open Road with the deck. We had a lot of fun with it. Ours had a 283 2 barrel with 4 speed granny!

Re: Picked up a new rig on CL this morning! 1969 C30 Motorhome
I saw that on CL! Was hoping a board member would buy it as it is out of my budget for now. At least I get to live (kind of) vicariously through you. Congrats on the buy!

No backup camera needed for this one. Just drop the deck and get a panoramic view of what's behind you!

Re: Picked up a new rig on CL this morning! 1969 C30 Motorhome
Thanks guys! I am happy with it so far. I ended up paying $2,700 after he delivered it for me. Not bad, not great, but fair I think. I will try to upload pictures when I can. The inside is in very good condition. I've been eyeing these beauties for years and thought I'd never find one let alone own one. I've always wanted a burb really bad, but I will get a lot more use out of the motorhome.

I also think you did well considering it includes the delivery fee.

Re: Picked up a new rig on CL this morning! 1969 C30 Motorhome
What a score!
Hey, this wouldn't have stumped most people on here; but being a newbie when I bought my 1970 C10 it still had the points distributor; and when I tried to look up the serial number on the distributor I didn't know what I had; Finally I figured out it was a motorhome chassis distributor that the previous owner had installed.. (photo attached).. So anyway; in the unlikely event yours still has the original points distributor I would be interested to see a photo of the number on it and if it was the motorhome version or a regular small block chevy truck distributor series. That piece that the second picture refers to has the total degrees of advance (built-in) stamped into it - so that will be handy information for when you start to tune your new baby... |
