Any Minnesotans interested??
I was talking with a guy at work yesterday and he told me about a 68 that he saw sitting for sale on highway 19 in Gibbon. He told me it was gold with a white bottom and a 3/4 ton. I told him about the 50th anniversary trucks and he thought that this one sounded like it could be one.
He didn't get any other info.

nope you could get the 50th scheme on anything. even on burbs and panels, 2 or 4 wheel drive. there are even a number of 50th Longhorns running around. oh yeah, you could get in on vans of the era as well.

I might cruise by and see this. Whats the best way to tell if it is a 50th?

It oughtta tell you just by looking at the glovebox option sticker info, if the sticker's still there.

Here are some pics of one that I found on the net. Notice the paint, and the upholstrey. Those are the 2 biggest things.

I am not sure that the glove box sticker will say 30th anniversary. It should have the color combo listed in the upper right though.
I am not 100% sure on this, someone else can probably pitch in here.

WOW! Looking at mapquest Gibbon is almost directly between da-burb's house and where he grew up. I can't believe he hasn't seen this yet.
5 will get you 10 that that burb already had one of da-burb's business cards slid under one of the wiper arms.
