1967 Custom Camper CST

[Wyatts Classics]

My name is Mike aka Bo Bo. This is my 1967 C20 Custom Camper CST. It has the original 327ci. engine, th 350 transmission, 411 Eaton differential, and did I mention-Buddy Buckets. This truck was built in Flint MI and has spent most of its life in Northern Indiana around the South Bend area. It was originally used as a full camper truck and then painted marina blue over the original white paint. We are going to do an original restoration on this truck and bring it back to the condition it was in when new or better! If there are any members on this forum that has any interesting information about this particular model, please feel free to comment. More photos to come. We just picked it up last Saturday and brought it back to Indy area. First thing to go will be the old camper. The original wood bed has not seen daylight since this truck was new!

Thanks. I actually had this guy send me 56 photos of only the bad things, so I expected to see more flaws, but it was in much better condition than I expected. Camper coming off first thing Wednesday.

Someone will want that old camper top.

The day we picked up the truck 22 Feb 2015. It snowed all the way. The Kenworth Roll Back only got up to 35- 45 miles an hour on unplowed roads. What a trip!

Nice truck. I would also love to see more pics, especially one of the original bed floor so I can drool.

The upper trim is just aftermarket stick on stuff. The bottom trim is correct 67/68 CST trim. If you want all original the white would look good with the CST lower trim, or, if you really want to two tone it, I would do the entire truck in the 67 medium blue with a white top and CST lower trim.

Thanks for the recommendation on the blue and white. The aftermarket trim is going to be trashed prior to bodywork. The camper shell went to a good home today, and later I will have the bed floor opened up to the sunshine. I have not seen it from the top side yet, but it looks very solid underneath.

Looks better already with the camper top off .

Nice truck on profile pic ChevyRedneck! We have only had one 67, and currently working on 2 70 Chevys, One is a Longhorn and the other is a Custom/10. Any interesting info on the 327ci. engine would be helpful. The carburetor on mine looks to be a Rochester from a 62 Cadillac. This truck does not have choke delete plate, and I would like to find the original configuration. Thank you for the color recommendation, I was thinking about the same color you suggested. PM me if you have any info on proper carb setup.

I don't. All I know about the 67 engines was that the 327 was the largest motor offered until 1968. My truck is about as far from stock as you can get, I had an I-6 originally. It's now a 350/700R.

The past few days here in Central Indiana have been cold in the teens. With a little help from Wendy and her Blazer we finally pushed the old 67 into its new temporary garage Saturday night just before we got 7 inches of snow. Today was spent draining 11 year old rancid varnished gasoline out of the tank and draining the oil after warming the shelter up to about 80 degrees. The carburetor is defiantly not the original and I did not look up exactly which Rochester 4 jet this is.(forgot my glasses). Monday I will finish all prep work in order to start the 327 after 11 years of sitting idle.
