Help! Can't find rare parts - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Jakes-66-K10 · 10-15-2004, 12:52 PM

Alright, I'll paypal a small finders fee to whoever can find a vendor that sells emblems for my CST/20. I've looked everywhere and can find Custom/20 or CST/10 but no one have emblems for CST/20's.

The other part is saddle tank replacements. I know I could probably go get one custom made but is there no vendor out there that has replacement saddles?

Thanks in advance!

You must be looking for a needle in a hay stack. You can rule out these vendors TRIM PARTS, YEAR ONE, IMPALA BOBS, KENNY'S TRUCKS, CLASSIC INDUSTRIES, LMC, EARLY CLASSICS, HARMONS. I looked at all of these vendors for you and found nothing. I have some other places I will look and let you know if I find you some.

I was looking for replacement saddles tanks also. I went ahead and had my old one cut open, cleaned out and coated.

Jakes-66-K10 · 10-15-2004, 05:07 PM

It's a 1970 Chevrolet CST/20. See this thread for more info:

I HAVE A SET OF SADDLE TANKS THAT CAME FROM A 70 CST LONGBED. THEY ARE STEEL AND I BELIEVE THEY ARE 20 GAL. I DONT REALLY KNOW WHAT THEY ARE WORTH. I DO BELIEVE THEY ARE AFTER MARKET. WHERE ARE YOU FILLER CAPS LOCATED? THESE WERE IN DOORS ON SIDE OF BED, FORWARD WHEEL WELLS. PM IF INTERESTED AT mewdew_13@hotmail.com

I bought a nice set on here about 3 mounths ago for 30 bucks. You need them off a 69 or 70 camper special. some longhorns had them too. Just post wtb cst/20 emblems and i got a quick reply on them. They are out there. Just no one reproducing them yet.

think CST/20 is rare? I saw a CST/30 on a '69 motorhome for sale by my house. I don't think I've ever seen another set of those. Some of the GMC emblems are pretty rare too, like 3500 V-Six. But anyway, good luck with your search!

HuggerCST · 10-17-2004, 03:53 PM

I've got a set of '69 Custom Camper/20 emblems on a truck that I'm parting if you are interested. It also has a CST emblem on the glove box.

Jakes-66-K10 · 01-16-2005, 07:36 PM

Anyone seen any recently? Still looking for replacement CST/20 emblems.

*bisquik65* · 01-16-2005, 07:47 PM

I will look for you here locally. I got my set off the board.

All else fails........try Hemmings Motor News

They also have a web site.

pound41 · 01-16-2005, 08:51 PM

Try Jimmy Carter's They have a used parts department. If they don't have it they keep a running list and do research trying to find it. They found for my Dad's restro a nice pair of C/20 emblems for a 1962 chevy 4X4. They were hard to come by and they were less than $50 for the pair

**special-K** · 01-17-2005, 10:28 AM

Follow up on MAC67.You`ll find them.They are rare.I save any originals I find,even if they`re reproduced.CustomCamper30s are another hard one.All the Custom/# are easiest.I`ll keep an eye out.

Jakes-66-K10 · 01-17-2005, 11:22 AM

Hemmings Motor News wants $31.95 to join their website. So, I'll have to rely on someone here that already has a membership to do a parts search with them. I will try Jimmy Carters today. Thanks for all your help guys, someone out there has gotta have a pair.
