How rare is this option?
Hello fellow forumers! Recently, my family has acquired a 1971 Chevy C-20 with the Custom Camper option. I'm wondering if this is a rare option because we can't find anything about any Custom Camper 20 option anywhere. Even in the Chevy truck restoration catalogue we can't find any badging or parts referring to a Custom Camper option. What do we have here, a rare truck or something that is common.

Not rare at all, however the custom camper badges are not reproduced so you won't find them in any catalogue.

Re: How rare is this option?
It is just a "nice to have" option, but keep in mind it only gives you the nameplate - all other camper stuff, if ordered, will show up on the SPID. The nameplate also supersedes your fender trim level callout, so a more appropriate question is what else dies your truck have? Trim level, opts, etc. I have a 71 custom camper 20 also, it's a Cheyenne Super and that is what makes it a little desirable to someone (ok, maybe just me). Ha. Welcome, and post some pics!

I don't know much,but I do know exactly where Dornsife is. I was just there in Sept for the 7-Miler. Nice area to drive the Custom Camper/20!

Re: How rare is this option?
Custom camper not too rare, but sounds like a nice truck. Too bad it doesnt have the rare "corvette engine" like you see mentionedin so many c list ads.
On a side note, i see the truck has the much sought after "E81 floorboard" option. I have parted a few rusty trucks and laughed to myself that they didnt have this option from the factory. :Lol: What exactly is this actually in reference to? Is it the wood bed floor? |
