Thanks, but mine looks better in pics than it does it person. I drive it quite a bit in the spring and summer so it's got some character!

Joesjunk: My God man. Usually when you see someone with a crazy long list of classics, there might be a couple nice ones and all the rest are parts vehicles or need restoration... badly

You have an insanely nice collection! I had no idea, I just knew you had the super nice flatbed.

SS Tim · 12-30-2012, 02:25 AM

Board member mtdave2 has a very nice original Longhorn.

SS Tim · 12-30-2012, 02:44 AM

While not completely stock this 71 Cheyenne 30 is a very period workhorse.

SS Tim · 12-30-2012, 02:56 AM

Then there is this 72 Custom Deluxe 30, another timepiece.

SS Tim · 12-30-2012, 03:08 AM

This 72 Cheyenne Super 30 and the trucks in posts #80 & 81 were all owned by the same owner. The Cheyenne Super 30 here has been restored but overall looks very correct.

Why do the back wheels have such a deep dish? Far different from my 2500. Or is that the "not completely stock" part?

**special-K** · 12-30-2012, 08:15 AM

Here are more C30 pickups,none are mine. The C/30s had 133" wheelbase compared to 127" of longbeds. I know the 2-tone Blue & White Longhorn was Josh Quinn's and the Red Stepside was a customer of Wes Hepp.

67ChevyRedneck · 12-30-2012, 01:16 PM

Was this side trim option actually offered for stepsides? I'm sure it was, I've seen it on a bunch of trucks... it just seems odd. It would have GREAT if GM created a 67/68 trim piece for around the stepside fenders, it wouldn't need to be continued onto the bedsides, but for the fender would have been cool!

I recently looked at a red '68 short stepper that had the trim and wondered the same thing?

I'm pretty sure you could get a truck like that new. Kind of reminds me of when Ford cancelled the unibody truck in 63, hadn't developed a fleet bed for their trucks, so they used the styleside 58-60 boxes on their trucks until around 64, I think certain longbeds and 4x4s got the old bed for a year or two longer until bed production caught up to demand. The bed looks COMPLETELY wrong for the truck, but they still sold like that brand new...

The Unibody wasn't available on 4wds,so those got the old Styleside bed if not a flareside. I believe the Unibody was an option and you could also get that old style bed on 2wds,but not 100% sure. By '64,when Ford abandoned the Unibody design,they had the new Styleside bed on all non-Flaresides. Studebaker used a wide bed on the Champs (P2) that never went with any Studebaker. They were made by Budd and were the same tooling used on Dodges first wide beds. Dodge had just changed their body style and didn't use the tooling so Studebaker started up. Their not so narrow bed (P1) was a carry over from the prior M-series. I guess this isn't too strange because GM used the same Stepside bed from 55-66.

The body moldings were installed on stepsides and chassis cabs in 67-68. Offically I cannot find any listings but many motorhome cab and chassis trucks were also equiped with the body moldings on later model years.
As to trim on the bed, it was considered to be a work body. Doubt there would have been many takers for trim.

Yes, moldings were offered on step side trucks, and cab and chassis's also in 67-68. My 68 1 ton was a cab and chassis new and it had moldings. They are listed on my option sheet. I dont believe you could get molding on a 69-72 thought. I have never seen proof of that anyway.

That's been my experience,too. I had a CST/30 cab & chassis and it had no trim. I've seen Cheyenne Super Stepsides and they had no trim. The factory only offered deluxe 2-tone on Fleetsides,I've read that in dealer ordering books

BigCountryx · 12-31-2012, 01:36 AM

Funy you ask, found this piece today. 67 custom stepside with full trim.

That trim does look kinda cool, but my bet is it's about as factory as those wheels are.
