Re: Caps, toppers, camper shells - ONLY!
Cool truck, topper, stickers, and more! before even reading your post I was going to ask for pictures of the stickers/decals. I have a thing for the decals from back when. I have the era correct faded Harley elongated bar & shield on my K2500 slider

Re: Caps, toppers, camper shells - ONLY!
So I finally got my new bed and included was an Airesman cap, I'll get pics of it this evening but I was wondering if anyone has any information on this company as I can't find anything on them. Any help would be greatly appreciated and I will get pictures of it later today. Until I moved the bed back to the shop it had had the top on it. I'm guessing since late 72 or early 73. I'm missing the tailgate though

Re: Caps, toppers, camper shells - ONLY!
This topper was headed to the scrap yard but i decided to put it on and see how i liked it. Glad i saved it! Its nothing special but i kinda like the way it looks. Planning on taking the kids on a weekend camp trip with it.

Re: Caps, toppers, camper shells - ONLY!
70 C20 Custom Camper. First time I've had the cap on in at least 3 years. Had to reinforce the corners as a lot of the welds have broken. Planning on taking it camping next week. Really not enjoying having the cap on. It cuts down on visibility A LOT.

Re: Caps, toppers, camper shells - ONLY!
Picked this one up for mine and it came off a 75 Chevy C10 that was on since new. All fibreglass and made here in Saskatchewan by Atlas Industries thatis now defunct. Very well made and in nice shape. Bought in July this year and then plans changed so I sold it and it went on an older Square Body..

Re: Caps, toppers, camper shells - ONLY!
Here’s a supposed c30 fifth wheel but has wheel covers and I’m uncertain it’s actually a longhorn. From Chevys Camper magazine 1972 Summer edition.

Re: Caps, toppers, camper shells - ONLY!
Truly love this post! To me there is nothing better than a time capsule truck, and there’s not enough LS swapped lowered short beds on 20’s to change my mind. I picked up this pap cap from the original owners who bought it in 1986. A lot newer than the truck, but looks pretty good on it.

Re: Caps, toppers, camper shells - ONLY!
Does look to be too long for standard longbed . Maybe a pre production truck where the added piece was welded not just bolted on

Re: Caps, toppers, camper shells - ONLY!
How cool is this color combo? No SPID shown.

Re: Caps, toppers, camper shells - ONLY!
A pretty much unmolested truck. Love it. The color combo sure is odd. Not what I would have ordered, but right here and now I love it. It sets that truck off. That paint is in great shape. I think the 250 (not 4.1L) w/4spd and gauges combine with the colors makes the truck all the more cool.
Not mine. This picture has been around a long time. '67 C2500 Super Custom Camper Cruiser

Re: Caps, toppers, camper shells - ONLY!
Great photo! '67 was a low production year, not many around that still look like new! Shell popularity really took off along with the camper boom of the 60's. Note, has period clip style 16.5" wheels with correct 3/4 ton caps.

Re: Caps, toppers, camper shells - ONLY!
Can be useful on the job site as well, if you chose the utility model. Note tire and wheel setup, the 7.50-16 tires on 16" 2 piece rims, very common in this era when these trucks were new.

Re: Caps, toppers, camper shells - ONLY!
^ On that white/hugger orange/white truck, it looks like the inside of the rocker was not painted. Is that so? I want to eventually return my truck to that paint config, as that was original. My FiL got it painted for free, and opted not to paint the lower portion white again. I need the right fender below the lower molding repaired first.

Re: Caps, toppers, camper shells - ONLY!
steveedee, I believe that is correct - exterior of the door below the trim was painted with secondary color, whereas the full interior of the door and door sills were painted in the primary color. Here's another example of a special two tone, see pic 4 of this post and you will note the full interior, inner door, and sill are all yellow - while the exterior face of the rocker is medium olive (this truck had a medium olive on the roof and below the lower trim in the Special Two Tone paint scheme originally).

Mine. I was going to get rid of it and my wife said no way. So it stays.
