I finally found a set of N.O.S. EMBLEMS!! - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

69oldie · 05-29-2004, 08:13 PM

I finally found 2 more N.O.S. 1968 fender emblems that say "CUSTOM CAMPER" in perfect condition! I only needed one, but the guy had two, so I now have a spare! I even got them at a low price!! I finally have ALL the emblems inside and out in N.O.S. for my 1968 50th EDITION LONGHORN Chevrolet! I'm getting close to having all my parts I need for this restoration!

I just wanted to to let everyone know that if you are patient you will eventally find a part you are looking for. It only took 2 years to find these last emblems!!!!!!!!!
Take care all!

Damn, an "NOS" 50th anniv. Longhorn? That's going to be one sweet truck! Don't forget to take plenty of progress pics!!

*dtlilly* · 05-29-2004, 08:59 PM

That for sure is a rare one, how about a few sneek peek pics to tide us over until it's finished?

This truck deserves it.

*Randy70C-10* · 05-29-2004, 09:46 PM

Is that his? Looks like it's already restored.

Ya, that one is his. I found that one here, in my county, and after figuring that I could not afford it, I got it up here on the board, to give it a good home. I still wish I could have bought that truck, but it is in better hands now.

I'm Glad to hear you found your emblems Jim. How did you finally find some?

I lay awake for several nights when racedvl first posted your future truck for sale on this board. I was trying to find ways to convice my wife we needed that truck. I was never successful though.

I'm really interested in watching your restoration too. Keep is informed.

Good Score! Glad to hear you finally found 'em. Looking forward to seeing your resto progress too!

I am glad you found them. I am still looking for mine. Fortunately (or not) I will not need them for a few more years. I am glad to see there is still a chance for me.
