Re: CUSTOM CAMPERS lets see them!
That is sweet. Did you get a pic of the spid? I'm curious if that's the same paint as my GMC.

Re: CUSTOM CAMPERS lets see them!
Yeah, those are really rare. In the early-80s I had a loaded '69 K/10 CST Custom Camper. I wish I still had it, but I sold it to get a K/20 because I'm an 8-lug kinda guy. I'm not sure I've ever seen another K/10 Custom Camper

Re: CUSTOM CAMPERS lets see them!
That's the tire I ended up with. They seem a little squirrelly, I get a little over-steer, now. Probably just a too much mold release. I'll give it some time. I may put a rear sway bar on it.

Re: CUSTOM CAMPERS lets see them!
Hey guys, thought I would throw a couple shots on my "mistress" in the mix. Not sure if it is a Custom Camper or just a Longhorn as the glove box and other id plates are gone, just the door jam one is left and I bought her as just a rolling cab. Still a long way to go to get her all done, but the 5.3L LS is in and the body and interior are slowly coming together.

Re: CUSTOM CAMPERS lets see them!
This needs to come back to the top! It's been awhile - show your custom campers! Or even someone else's if we haven't seen it here lately.

Re: CUSTOM CAMPERS lets see them!
(robs71) That's a nice looking 68 C20 you got there. i love the 67/68 front ends. my 72is only a C10. when I purchased it,I didn't think I would need anything bigger than it, buy I have realized quickly, using mine as a everyday light work truck/Daily Driver that I should've been looking for a 8 lugger, lol. Question?; what's the numbers at the bottom front quarter of the bed, are they DOT numbers?

Re: CUSTOM CAMPERS lets see them!
numbers on bed..i put the 7500 on for the local quarry scale.I do not take it over 7500 pounds when hauling stone or sand.This way when I am being loaded the operator can quit loading before having me overloaded....could haul more but do not like to push it...

Re: CUSTOM CAMPERS lets see them!
Welcome Tim, that's a great looking rig - would love to see more pics, especially of the inside. Any more details on the truck? C30 I assume - big block?? Do tell. Thanks for sharing. And welcome from a former Ridgecrest resident! Still miss the high desert, I have to admit. Just not the sandblast winds.
