A few photos I have saved. It's hard to find pictures of this combo.

here's one of my favorite black trucks. it was sold not too long ago (not mine). white over black with red interior.

**Eagle9502** · 04-14-2018, 08:59 PM

68bowtie, that second truck is NICE!

**68bowtie** · 04-14-2018, 10:01 PM

That’s a 1-ton owned by a forum member. Yeah it’s an awesome truck!

**KevinK7** · 04-14-2018, 10:21 PM

That Fawn and Black is a great combo.

**Eagle9502** · 04-20-2018, 08:48 PM

So was there two different colors that were called fawn? The pic above looks gray, others I have seen look more tan/gold.

Old thread, new found photo I figured I would ad in.

Great color combo. Black/off white with red interior. Like to see more of them posted. Favorite color combo on a truck.

68's with black exterior and red interior are my favorite combo.

**chewychevy67** · 05-26-2023, 09:01 PM

That is my favorite combo.

ghackett1 · 05-27-2023, 07:19 AM

I know it’s an old post but since it’s been revived here’s my original black/ivory with red interior as found.

ghackett1 · 05-27-2023, 07:26 AM

Here’s the SPID on the truck above.

ghackett1 · 05-27-2023, 09:04 AM

Here’s how it looks now

**68bowtie** · 05-27-2023, 09:35 AM

Very nice!

**dagnabbitt** · 05-27-2023, 09:57 AM

Very cool color combo. I wonder why black was not more popular at the time, it is pretty rare.

Fifty years before these trucks were built nearly all vehicles were black, and fifty years after, well, it's pretty much the dominant color, too.

CKfan · 05-27-2023, 10:08 AM

Great truck, nice options

**68bowtie** · 05-27-2023, 01:36 PM

What are they asking for the C10? The one I posted above is on FBMP for $8,500 and it is a little tired has some issues but cool nonetheless with its color combo. Long bed fleet 1/2's and 3/4 tons bring that kind of money now? I haven't ever really tracked the LB prices.

**68bowtie** · 05-27-2023, 05:49 PM

Initially $29k, dropped to $22k…
