was talking to my neighbor behind me today about trucks and what not and i mentioned i noticed a couple of times in the past a gold 68 chevy in yard, well he started telling me about it and get this
68 CST/20 with 327/auto trans 50th anniversery package, his father in law bought the truck brand new from the local chevy dealer and it has less than 10000 original miles on it, oh and it has a 4.11 rear end, he has all the original sales papers and everything on the truck, it has never been restored and it still looks like a showroom model
the guy ( my neighbor )just thought it was a 68 chevy but i asked him if it had the gold and white seats and that is when i told him it was a 50th
oh and he said he would sell it if someone had enough money, but i dont know if he was joking or not.

I have a 68 50th also. It is a C20? I thought ( atleast dmv said) it was a C10? Is there a parts difference in the C10 to the C20?? Is the 4.11 Stock?

The 50th treatment was avalible on all trucks, C/10, C/20...co...K series, even Vans.
Your 4.11, if listed in the glove box, is stock. Depending on if you have a C/10 or C/30 and engine option, the 4.11 (or is it a 4.10...I can't remember) may be a base model gear.

Suspention is about it...how many lugs hold on your wheels? 6 = C/10, while 8 = C/20 or C/30...but you'd probably know if you have a one ton.
