Actualy that plug is the RPO UY1 Camper Wiring Harness, shown here in a picture of mine (to good effect if not clarity) on an Alaskan pop up camper. The full picture is at post #91.

so if a cab has this then that means the truck had a camper..... this is the factory wiring? so it can be a good asumption that the cab would belong to a custom camper.... even though you could get the camper wiring without the custom camper package.

Well the only real answer would be probably. But yes it is factory and on the SPID. If the truck had been special ordered then its very likely. A lot truck might not have ever carried a camper it's whole life. Most campers went on new trucks in this time period. But many, if not most, buyers pick something off the lot that is "close enough" to what they wanted and usually there is a helpful salesman right there to close the sale. The Custom Camper is just a nameplate option that had required RPO numbers. These generally reflected the minimum recommended chassis equipment for that truck model and not every possible camper related option. The UY1 Camper Wiring was not required. After all few trucks are seen wtih the U98 Junction Block and even the TP2 Aux Battery is rare. Here are two pages from the '69 data book. Required C30 Custom Camper Nameplate options and Camper Recommendations.

Here's a 69 Custom Camper 30 that I picked up recently.

[1970 Custom Camper]

Just picked her up a week ago. I'm the third owner. 1970 Custom Camper/20 152,000 miles. I'll be using it to tow my vintage Airstreams and for normal work truck stuff.

[ChevroletC30]

Can U help me?
Was my truck a Custom Camper?
See my option code sticker:

[Sicklajoie]

^^^According to post #114 it looks like your SPID has all the options except for the nameplate itself. Nice Longhorn!

[blukangoo]

Sure do like the wooden bed on that longhorn!

[Achevytruck]

67chevy1series in your pictures of the Custom Camper front fender Emblem the bow tie the wrong color its BLUE and how com i know i have a NOS one and know where a true factory 1967 chevy one ton Custom Camper . CST truck is that never left the dealership lot at all and means the back of the cab was never cut for the camper body

[67chevy1series]

haha i know..... lol me and my dad started thinking..... why would all the bow ties in 67 and 68 be red..... but the glove box emblem and custom camper emblems be blue??? so we said, how about everything just stays red... if it was a 69 72 then they would have stayed blue.... but even then 69 72 didnt have these emblems so long story we painted it red lol

[Achevytruck]

i donk know how come , but if you and me were living in 66,67,68,69. we all would know how come. and can you tell me how to put pictures on this web site

[67chevy1series]

yeah i wish i knew... i love chevy but i guess everyone has there flaws... oh well thats why we are here to correct them 45 years later yes to put pictures up you go to make a reply. after the window pops up with the text ready for you to type, you put at least 2 characters in the text then you scroll down and look, you will find a button that says "manage attatchments" click that and a window will pop up saying "browse" click browse and find the picture ou want from your desktop or pictures and click it. you can do 5 at a time. once you get the pictures you want click upload, let it load and as soon as its all loaded exit out of the window and click send on the post reply and your done! good luck!

I'm from 66,67,68,69 and I don't know why. And I don't know anyone who does,either. I also don't know why Rick didn't paint his grille bowtie blue to match the Custom Camper and glove box door badges

[Dieselwrencher]

I'd post a pic, but all I have of mine right now is a shot of the door with the emblems on it.

[Achevytruck]
