What is your paint code on that jewel? Our trucks are very similar, except mine is a C20 Custom Camper, I do have a 5 lug suspension off a 72' with front discs, so if I ever make that happen they'll be even more alike.

C10_ustacould · 01-21-2013, 11:22 PM

Mine was fresh off the farm when I go it...

71K20chevy · 01-21-2013, 11:26 PM

Will you allow a truck that has the front fender painted by the PO?

matt_field · 01-21-2013, 11:37 PM

Looking great everyone! Love that patina. Andy, of course that painted fender is allowed! Your 4wd is one of my favorites (along with many more) how much is that truck lifted?

Thank you

4" Rough Country lift. Someday I might go with a 6" all spring lift.

This isn't my truck, but it's one I've been eyeballin for a long time - went up to see it a few months ago. Nice old gent up in vegas still has it for sale... Original solid ochre paint (and original 402 I might add) - if you look close, you can still see the early 70's era "panel" pinstripes that were put on it shortly after it left the showroom by owner #1.

It looks pretty good, but the pictures make it look even better.

Spent a LOT of time polishing to get it where it is now. Not a lot of paint left, there is primer showing through in some areas on the hood. But overall, pretty happy with how it turned out.

Oh, it also helps make it look better that I changed the bumpers, grille trim, mirrors, etc. too.

Wow! I'm impressed Adam. Even if the camera makes it look a little better than it does in person, it looks like it just rolled off the line to me. NICE truck.

Thanks!

Working on making it better every day (or at least when I can!).

'71 custom camper 20, dad bought it new, great survivor but doesn't compare to some on here! Dark olive, original wood bed, the paint has long since gone, but it's in great shape (i think dad probably put the used motor oil on it)

**special-K** · 01-22-2013, 07:14 AM

My '71 Custom Camper/20 Cheyenne was all original,including wood bed floor. My '72 Custom Deluxe/20 Highlander Custom Camper was original,except 400SBC,till I lifted it

BB72CHEVKT · 01-22-2013, 11:06 AM

Here is my burb and a photoshop of my 72.

Here is the '70. I sold the camper and cleaned the truck up for a driver. On the picture of the hood, half of it is cleaned and polished and half of it isn't. The tailgate was a new takeoff. Good running, original ole truck. AM radio even works!
