1970 Chevy Custom 20 w/ Alaskan Camper Score!

Fired up the old craigslist the other day, about 9:30pm to be exact, and stumbled upon an ad for a "6?-7? Chevy Truck $200" No phone only email. Ad read no keys, no papers, $200. So naturally I sent an email. Not untill the next morning around 9 did I get the call. Long story short and a few hours digging her out of the mud she was on my trailer heading home behind my '72 GMC Sierra 3500.

As soon that we reached the shop I started digging in. Target Master Crate Small Block converted to Propane. Automatic Transmission and not a glimpse of light since the late 80's under that hood and interior as well.

A full size cab-over pop-up Alaskan Camper was a major bonus, a little water damaged but another worthy project indeed.

Re: 1970 Chevy Custom 20 w/ Alaskan Camper Score!

Well worth the money, no doubt, but what do you have to do to get the registration updated with no paperwork? That could be a serious pain... Still for $200, I'm sure it will be worth it.

Re: 1970 Chevy Custom 20 w/ Alaskan Camper Score!

Nice find! The photo tells the reason why so many 3/4 tons custom campers were sold, and why there so many still around. It is a great color and contrasts well with the white bumper and wheels. The bottom molding only trucks seem to look cleaner and less cluttered than top and bottom molding trucks. Just have to ask, Eaton with coils or Dana with leafs?

Re: 1970 Chevy Custom 20 w/ Alaskan Camper Score!

Been raining here so the truck/camper is tarped down. Will shoot some more pics once we dry out for a day or two. Rear is an Eaton with coils. The rims on the truck came with me '72 GMC 3500 when I bought her, just spares now. The '70 came with 7.50-16s that have an extra ring on the bead. Not sure of the specific name of these rims.

As for the paperwork, if you have done it here in Cali you know how it goes, claim stupidity But anyways, Im still in search of my matching white in color, top and bottom trim with toolbox GMC bed for my '72 GMC Sierra 3500. At that point the camper will be destine for that truck after the campers restoration of course. Sure will be nice pulling the race car to the track and popin the camper B-)

Very nice score! I'm surprised the camper is still in nice shape. Usually they are trashed from weather or critters.
