1967 'Burb Models
Is there a Custom model and then a Custom Deluxe model?
Found a Custom at least on the door I have my eye on but unsure about the different trim/model differences. Can someone please enlighten me? Thank you.

Re: 1967 'Burb Models
SO with the Custom model each truck/'burb could be different as far as what is standard and what is optional?
Just trying to get an idea what comes with a Custom vs. other models. Thanks guys.

Re: 1967 'Burb Models
My 68 is a "Custom".
Not much of an "optioned out" truck compared to the later models. In my case the Custom option included bright trim on the sides, a radio, cloth seats, bright trim on the windshield molding, and a nicer vinyl cover on all the interior side panels with arm rests. IMO the trucks got better options starting 1969, and everything before was pretty basic stuff.

Re: 1967 'Burb Models
So the CST model would have more options than the Custom, correct?
Thanks guys!

Re: 1967 'Burb Models
Yes. A CST would have more options than a Custom. And Vectorit is right. There is a HUGE difference between a loaded 67' or 68' truck/burb and a loaded 72' truck/burb.

Re: 1967 'Burb Models
I dont ever remember seeing CST in a burb, just standard or custom in 67 68. The custom model gave you the upgraded interior and chrome accents. CST was an option offered only on fleetside pickups.

Re: 1967 'Burb Models
I dont have much input for CST vs Custom,but I have a 67 K10 that is as base as it gets,no chrome anywhere, radio delete, manual brakes and steering,the only things that are going for it is it had gauges a V8 and 4X4.

Re: 1967 'Burb Models
'72 Custom Deluxe - I've got the front and rear AC (which is pretty nice - or will be when I get it working) - but otherwise, there's NO: sunroof, "extra" cup holders, no FM radio (although I've heard it was an option in '72), CD/DVD/MP3 player, 17"/18"/19"/20" alloy wheels, navigation system, leather seats, power seats, power antenna, clock, outside temp, travel computer, carpeting, child restraint system, ABS, airbags, climate controlled cabin, cabin air filter, multiple power outlets (although it does have a cigarette lighter and A LOT of ashtrays), center console, seat heaters, fog lamps, OnStar, or Internet access. What I like about the truck is the simplicity - even at the "custom deluxe" level. What I also like is how on a cold day it kind of starts slow - doesn't feel like shifting gears until it warms up and then when it's warm it's as smooth as it can be - kinda' like it's alive.

While the CST was never offered on burbs, it was optional on fleetsides, stepsides, even cab/chassis trucks. I think it was even on blazers too. |

Re: 1967 'Burb Models
info like that was why I got rid of the red book. It is full of mistakes like that.
It's all good, we all pass on wrong info from a book at one point or another on here. |

Re: 1967 'Burb Models
I'm sure I posted this some place on this board but doing it again.
As I do not know much about this option on my 'burb. It has an A/C unit under the bench seat just behind the driver & passenger seats. There is a small A/C knob on the dash on the left hand lower side to switch the unit on/off. Anyone else on every seen on of these?
