Yeah the truck was pretty beat up and rusted out. I ended up getting the mirrors, e brake lever and cover, some emblems, and the turn signal lenses. My dads friend saved the motor, tranny, seats, gauge cluster, and gas tank. Everything else got junked.

very sad such a well optioned truck!

Re: CUSTOM CAMPERS lets see them!
 

You should trade your truck for a Custom Camper Rick!

Re: CUSTOM CAMPERS lets see them!
 

OR i could keep the 67 and build a custom camper? which is what i doing only its the wussy version, its a 1/2 ton but its a little more beafier then a half ton because its 4wd.

Re: CUSTOM CAMPERS lets see them!
 

Here is one that got away. While putting a loan together for the truck and a dog box, my job went away. It sold shortly later.
Anyway, original rust free, '71 Custom Camper/30, CST/Cheyenne, 400, 4-speed and just about everything but A/C. 85k on the odometer... Still have dreams about this truck and a M&H or NAPCO conversion kit.

Nice looking Longhorn there. Kind of funny how the cap had to be extended.

Re: CUSTOM CAMPERS lets see them!
 

sounds like an awesome truck i wish you had more pics!

Re: CUSTOM CAMPERS lets see them!
 

What exactly are you interested in seeing? I have 18 different pictures at 3072 x 2304, that adv. about 1.5MB each. For example the horn button is life size in the cluster shots. The provided picture is like 15% original. These are a bit much to post. I could cut down some more angles but it just dosen't give you same effect.

Re: CUSTOM CAMPERS lets see them!
 

What a fine survivor. I only hope it is in good hands now.

Re: CUSTOM CAMPERS lets see them!
 

Custom camper 30's are pretty scarce aren't they? Nice longhorn.

Re: CUSTOM CAMPERS lets see them!
 

Here's a 1 ton 50th custom camper.

Re: CUSTOM CAMPERS lets see them!
 

Wow, nice. Rare of the rare with an extra set of 50th buddy buckets. How lucky can you get?

Re: CUSTOM CAMPERS lets see them!
 

Wow 50th Buddy Buckets..... All I want for Christmas is............

Re: CUSTOM CAMPERS lets see them!
 

Don't have any really good pictures of this one but its a '68 CST Custom Camper 20 Longhorn. Bonus period picture included with the 9' Alaskan it carried most of its life. BTW this had dual in bed saddle tanks. Probably should have bougt this one... oh well.

Re: CUSTOM CAMPERS lets see them!

Re: CUSTOM CAMPERS lets see them!

the step bumper has to go....I have a chrome one to put on her.

Re: CUSTOM CAMPERS lets see them!
 

nice choice on the bumper. i dont think i have ever seen any step bumper on our trucks that looked good.

Re: CUSTOM CAMPERS lets see them!
 

Nice looking truck, tell us more. Is that original paint?

Re: CUSTOM CAMPERS lets see them!
 

Yep! the original factory saddle color, shes' a little faded with patina showing showing her age. In time I'll give her a new color but for now I need to replace the inner cab roof panel due extensive rust above the windshield.

Re: CUSTOM CAMPERS lets see them!
 

thats cool its a half ton custom camper like my dads! do you think a 1/2 ton custom camper could be a 4 wheel drive????

Re: CUSTOM CAMPERS lets see them!
 

Here is my '68. Brought it home in the fall of 2009. Drove it to Lowe's Sunday and bought gutter parts!

Re: CUSTOM CAMPERS lets see them!
 

Very period looking truck jim zag! Very common during the late 60's thru 70's to run large 12-16.5's just on rear only for a more stable camper ride and higher weight hauling capacity.
