On the 50th anversary trucks, could you get pinstripes on it from the factory and still be considered a 50th?

My opinion would be yes. I think the main qualifier was the gold/ivory paint.

After speaking to the seller, I am convinced it is a 50th.
Now I need Sunday to hurry up and get here. |

The key is the 551 paint code. Also, ivory gold interiror for the pickups and fawn interior for burbs and panels.

Hey 68...any way you can scan the info you have regarding the 50th stuff? I could use a copy. I would apreciate it. |

68 50th Aniversary Burb. The burbs and panels did not have the white under the trim.

What is the most rare 50th combo? I don't think I've ever seen a SWB BB, but that sure would be cool.

68...cool. I'll assume you put your home addy in there too? That would be awsome if you did the scanning for me...it may come in handy pretty soon.
I have pics of a short fleet 50th on my longhorn site, and I have a van on my hard drive some place... a long fleet 4X4 on my site... I don't think I've seen a short step yet... |

My 68 GMC 4x4 SWb has the 50th anniversary colors inside and beneath the white paint outside . Did GMC produce a 50th 68 GMC SWB 4x4's ?
