My new 68 Stepper - all original - Page 2 - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Wow! Unbelievable find! Really a beautiful example of a survivor. I'd love to see more pics but, when you get a moment, can you tell me what the gold paint code is? That's exactly the color combo I want for my 71 GMC.

**DaHos** · 09-30-2014, 11:51 AM

Awesomeness !!!

Still gives me hope that there are still some nice ones out there!! The hunt continues......

**Already Gone** · 09-30-2014, 11:53 AM

Super looking truck and its nice to hear you say your going to leave it as it is. If you dont mind sharing I alwayslike to know how you came across the truck, Craigslist, relative, Local Classified Ad, friend of friend deal or saw it parked in a driveway with a For Sale sign on it etc. ?

CST10 · 09-30-2014, 04:10 PM

Local classified ad in the newspaper.

CST10 · 09-30-2014, 04:11 PM

Paint code is 4555AA saddle/white

CST10 · 09-30-2014, 04:12 PM

It's not the 50th anniversary paint code of 4551. But it is close to it.

CST10 · 09-30-2014, 05:01 PM

More 68 porn.

CST10 · 09-30-2014, 05:08 PM

Engine bay. Look at that factory grease pencil mark on the firewall. Sweeeeeet.

CST10 · 09-30-2014, 05:09 PM

Original oil bath air cleaner. I'm degrease the engine bay soon.

CST10 · 09-30-2014, 05:10 PM

Last shot of the day

CST10 · 09-30-2014, 05:11 PM

One of the side shots.

CST10 · 09-30-2014, 05:16 PM

It's still even got the original cardboard separator between the gas tank and bench seat.

slowcpe · 09-30-2014, 05:21 PM

That's truck is almost too good to be true! I'm in love.

CST10 · 09-30-2014, 05:36 PM

Never ever did I think I would ever find one like this with all of the documentation to prove the actual milage.

It's got a few things to address such as weatherstripping, heater core, driver window doesn't roll down. Had to put a muffler on it yesterday. Needs a tune up. All minor stuff.

To break the code down, 555 was a 525 saddle fawn metallic body with a 526 ivory (off-white) roof

IIRC the 525 saddle fawn was used only in 68-69 and the number was recycled for a different color.

...very, very nice little pick up...congrats!!
That is exactly the 'dream' way to find a classic truck...that kind of condition and history.
Any plans to change anything on it from its current condition and equipment?
(Maybe power steering and brakes...easy 'non-intrusive' stuff...a radio...or?
Very nice piece of machinery!

**Joesjunk** · 09-30-2014, 07:23 PM

Very nice truck! You can't beat a low mile original truck

No, I really don't have many plans at this point. I might change the wheels and add a hidden radio. I don't plan on much except preserving it like it is as far as cosmetics and mechanical.

Besides, I already have a '70 CST10 that is highly molested that I can play with mod's. It's got a 462 CI BBC, lowered with ac and nice stereo.
