I agree, but other than buckets that's a pretty low option truck for a CST. Doesn't even have power steering or brakes.

yep, agree low optioned - I really just want to see the gold trim in a 514 red paint interior truck, don't think I've ever seen that before. CST+buckets is a nice combo, but that must've run the original buyer out of money before he could get the more practical options. Guess he just wanted to look good getting there, no matter how much work it was.

I am just wondering if you have seen the vehicle. I would like to know more about it from a hands-on point of view. I have family in the Tahoe area and have bought trucks from out your way before.

I apologize for writing in response to a different quote from you. Thanks.

Vintage camper shell for those of you of the short fleet persuasion $300
Hard enough to find for a long bed, let alone a short! Good price assuming it's not falling apart.

And one for you lwb folks as well $150
This one a little more mid-70's era.

He needed a tape measure on that long bed shell

I requested measurements and he replied and posted them.. I thought it was an odd amount of overhang and hoping maybe for a longhorn

based on his description, sounded like he would know what a typical longbed would measure and maybe the camper was odd sized..

longhorn is 105" front cap to tailgate tip to tip btw..

This is a old school vintage camper all aluminum for a full size truck, long bed. I bought it thinking It would fit my truck but i was wrong. I buy it for $250
Side windows open and close perfectly !
Local pick up only.

I would also like to know the difference. In any pictures that I see, they look the same but I have heard they are different and that the 1970 grille is not reproduced?

The inner section is slightly different. I believe the first pic below is a pic SSTim made - but it highlights the vertical separations on the 70. Also, the outer grille is either repop or NOS, but not likely original to the truck. Note the difference of the black lines between the headlight and turn signal on these the originals and the truck in question. (EDIT: added two more pics after the white truck in question. The red truck is a 69, the white is a 70.

Dave - correct, the 70 is not reproduced, and the 69 that is reproduced is often marketed as a 69-70, further confusing the issue.

Got it - thanks Jocko.

Here's a picture of the inner and outer grilles put on my '69 after an idiot slammed into the front of my truck in early 1972. Looked just like the one on the Craigslist truck. Both were genuine GM parts. I removed some of the black paint on the center bar (reduced the width of the horizontal lines and the paint adjacent to the parking turn signals) to make the outer grille look more like the original.

Based on the paperwork posted with the ad, that is definitely a '69.

Not to muddy the waters completely...but with regard to the inner grille for 69-70, what is reproduced is really a mash up of what came from the factory. It looks more like a 69 from a distance because it is solid silver/argent. But it does have MOST OF the raised bars embossed on the 70s. So it's sorta cast for a '70 and sorta colored like a '69.

Here's a post from our build thread that illustrates the repro version more closely:

Go to the whole thread to see how we made it look like a 1970.

I agree it's a mix of 69 and 70. And... I've thought about sanding the raised bars off mine so it would be correct for my truck. I've never studied a repro inner grille, but I'm not sure it's painted correctly for a 69 either.

EDIT: Hmm, this should probably be a separate thread subject.
