His truck and camper were restored and put in the museum.

It appears a few details were lost during the restoration.(post #31 page 2) The red white and blue V6 emblems are now all white. The dark blue trim paint that was originally on the hubcaps is also missing(there all white too). Where they cutting corners or did they think it was not important?

1959 Fleetside with 1959 Traveleze. Wrong vintage for this thread, but thought I'd throw it in...

Really liking the big door/little door option on that shell. Also the single color no trim look is awesome in red.

Cool drop top.

Before the "Custom Camper" option became available, you had to specifically order options to be a comfortable camper hauler. Most all the options available in '66, were available in '64, but most car salesmen and first time buyers did a poor job of equipping these earlier C20's properly.

Most of the photos in this thread are vintage. However, I recently met a fellow who still uses his '66 C20 as his front-line camping rig with an incredibly clean 1968 Holiday Rambler camper. Pretty cool setup. Still has the orginal (rebuilt) 327 and TH400 trans. I was hoping he might join us here and chime in. But since he hasn't yet, I thought I'd share some pics. Check out the oversize wheels front and rear.
