**special-K** · 07-29-2011, 07:51 AM

I've had a thing for Custom Campers for a long time. I've always liked camping and I love GM trucks. So,the two just came together and at one time I had five,a '70 C/30 CST 157",a '71 C/20 Cheyenne w/camper,a '72 K/20 Cheyenne Super,a '72 K/20 Highlander,and a '72 K2500 Sierra. I've also had two Camper Specials:a '78 C30 Scottsdale and an '84 K/30 Silverado. Those are cool,they have teepees on the b-pillar. My '92 K3500 SLE has the camper package,too.

Here is a picture of one I had. Board member 72Mario used it for a build.

No, it was actually silver with and off white. I believe I am the 4th owner, and the second owner is the one who painted, and the hood ornament, and debadged it. It now says "Cool Truck" on the fender with a 3/4 Ton badge underneath it on the drivers side, and I just got a grille bowtie for it last year. I wish it still had the Custom Camper emblems though, they are pretty neat looking.

It looks like Daddy Brim's truck in post 2 could be a cousin to mine

haha cool! have you ever checked to see it the previous owner bondo'd the holes? if so you could pop out the holes and find some of those emblems and put them back on. what are your plans for it? gonna remove the hood oranament? are you keeping the 71 72 bumper? and did your truck have lower side molding?
