72 custom20 deluxe - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Like I needed another truck! This truck had a full size camper on it and has 74,000 orginal miles on it. The owner had it in a garage for 7 years and when he tried to start it the rings on the 402 were gone. He then replaced it with a hi perf 454! The 454 has 5,000 miles on it. The cab inside is like new and everything works. Here are some pics

sweet, what did you pay for it?
now all you need is a fleet side bed.

72armyswbtruck · 05-07-2006, 08:37 PM

Nice, I wonder why I can't see the pics.

Longhorn Man · 05-07-2006, 08:49 PM

really... I see them fine.
Are you getting the dreaded red X?

**special-K** · 05-07-2006, 08:53 PM

I see it,and I`ve seen alot of red Xs.BTW Rick,your truck is a Custom Deluxe.A nice one at that.

Nice ride. I have a custom delux also. I just picked up a front clip for it. Now I know what the holes in the cowl are from. Thanks

wibilly · 05-07-2006, 10:11 PM

thats a beauty, thats just what i'm looking for

**Ricks1971** · 05-07-2006, 10:12 PM

I'm going to be taking the duel wheels off and was thinking of a set like these if they will fit?

Longhorn Man · 05-07-2006, 10:12 PM

Just noticing something... that was not originally a dualie truck. I think those are ford wheels in back too. Notice it has normal flat wheels in front and not the same style as in back.
What's the truck model? (listed on glove box as first option)

**Ricks1971** · 05-07-2006, 10:19 PM

CE20934 as the model number. The guy put 16" wheels on it!

**special-K** · 05-07-2006, 10:26 PM

I wonder if it was converted to a frame-mount camper when new or later on.It would have started as a pickup.The rear is swapped-in,probably when the camper was mounted.It`s a cab`n`chassis rear.

**Ricks1971** · 05-07-2006, 10:29 PM

The guy who bought it new said he bought it new with the camper on it!

Longhorn Man · 05-07-2006, 11:36 PM

then the dealer removed the bed...
a 34 is a fleet side truck

**special-K** · 05-08-2006, 06:14 AM

Yeah,either the dealer or an upfitter through the dealer.You can buy a truck,then handle your own upfits.Or,a savy dealer can handle it themselves and sell the package.Like the conversion vans or trucks with snow plows,dump beds,utility beds,etc.that you see on a new lot.

**Yukon Jack** · 05-08-2006, 09:35 AM

Looks like a sweet truck!

bestchevyfan · 05-08-2006, 09:39 AM

Very Nice Looking Truck. Later Buddy

Longhorn Man · 05-08-2006, 02:57 PM

You can even see the bed mounts that wouldn't be there on a cab/chassis truck.

**uncle** · 05-08-2006, 05:47 PM

Not trying to rob the post, but does anyone have a mirror arm like the ones on this truck that they want to get rid of. I talking about the arm that goes from the tripod to the mirror.

**special-K** · 05-08-2006, 08:32 PM

Hey Unk,have you tryed NAPA?I found ones for my low-mounts.They had pages with different configurations/measurements.
