Found 68 anniversary C-20 w/ 30k!!!!

In town and passed a truck on a trailor turned around and followed it to the gas station. Its a 68 C-20 anniversary, 327,auto,air, Z-84 opt. etc. Been sittin' ina barn for over 20 yrs. most of the interior is good just needs to be cleaned up. Gold dash pad, buckets, parchment,gold carpet. Little rust but solid. The guy would start her up every month. He said the mileage was a true 30k. I wish I got a pic of it. I know the guy so I
hope to stay in touch. Does anybody know the numbers on how many C-20's like this was made? Oh yea kinda' scared the wife when I made a fast turn to chase em' down but its not everyday you see one like this!!

There were just over 60,000 C-20's made in 68 I don't think it is known how many of the 50th's were made in 68.

weasel29gm,

This sounds like a Kodak moment to me.
I don't think that the interior stuff is being reproduced in those colors.
Grab a digital camera and snap some pics.

Production numbers are rare on this model.
Most folkes even ones in the truck business are unaware of this limited edition truck.

Have fun

Thanks, for the info. When I saw the paint I knew it was a rare truck. The opt tag in the glovebox was filled on both sides. I'm goin' count the opts. when I get a chance.

BTW, this is a West Virginia truck, came from White Sulfer Springs. All the literature was in the glovebox I'll have to check it out.

Yea after lookin' at the opt tag, I think he knows but got doubts about the price he gave. Found out he gets alot of stuff but gets it cheap. Gonna' try to keep in touch and see what he does with it.
