All that picture needs is a couple of squirrels checking out the camper and sharing a blunt. Great work! :smoke:

Re: Pictures of 1960-66 campers please
 

Although close, the two campers have different windows and one has a back bumper. One also has 64 emblems and the other has none. Pretty cool pics though.

I freaking LOVE the appeal of this '63 rig! So straight, hard, and brimming with early 60's awesomeness!
Thanks for posting!

Do you have the surf wagon pics from the cover story too?

Re: Pictures of 1960-66 campers please
 

Yeah, I dig the entry door on the side. Kind of unusual, in my experience.

Here are a couple photos of my wifes aunt's 1964 with a couple different campers. The photos are circa 1969 and 70.

I've posted this on other threads but here is the family rig from my childhood.

Re: Pictures of 1960-66 campers please
 

Nice looking campers ya'all! Keep'em comin! :metal:

Re: Pictures of 1960-66 campers please
 

Cool Pictures everyone.
While looking through the pages of this thread my wife out of know where says "I like those, like your truck but for road trips and camping. Since you want yours nice, maybe we should save for one? we'll talk about it later." I was so like What, did she really just say that.:metal:

Re: Pictures of 1960-66 campers please
 

Well, we did it! This past weekend we bought and loaded up a 1967 Teardrop brand slide-in camper for Big Red. Fit like a glove on the first shot.
All it really needs is little TLC including exterior paint, a few light bulbs, fridge recharge, and we're good to go.
Last night we were all laughing and feeling like little kids in a new fort. Even had dinner in the thing, just sitting in the driveway. I tell ya, it's more fun than $500 should buy.

Color coordinating camper to truck was very popular back then. '64 C -20 when new.

Re: Pictures of 1960-66 campers please
 

Damn, that looks like new inside...great buy! I'm assuming you will repaint with a color match to the truck, looking forward to the finished pkg. Very cool!!

Re: Pictures of 1960-66 campers please
 

Yellowstone here we come ! Looks awesome ! Any idea what just the camper unit weighs ? Whats Big Red like driving now ?

PS, tires ship tomorrow !!

Long time watcher, first time writer. Lets see if this works. Attached are pictures I thought might be of interest. When I moved into my new house, it turned out my neighbor 2 blocks away had the same truck and camper as mine. His a 66 truck and 64 Camper, mine both 65. We both purchased them from the original owners...got some funny looks at shows when parked side by side. I sold the unit to buy the trailer and the Crewcab. The Crewcab has the original canopy from new.

Re: Pictures of 1960-66 campers please
 

Nice score! My wife and I do the same thing with our campers and trailers. The truck looks better now with a load and a story to tell.

Re: Pictures of 1960-66 campers please
 

Oem4me-That is definitely more fun than $500 should buy these days!! Looks like a lot more fun to come.
crewguy- nice rides.

Here is my future someday camper project for my 65 K10. It is an old Chinook.

Yes, they are of much interest, thanks for posting. RV's are the reason so many 3/4 tons are still around in such great shape. Original owners took pride in there rigs.

Re: Pictures of 1960-66 campers please
 

Not a good idea for a 1/2 ton, not a good idea for a 4X4 with a high center of gravity. Look for a 3/4 ton Custom Camper.

Re: Pictures of 1960-66 campers please
 

These are too cool...
Pullman Camper

Re: Pictures of 1960-66 campers please
 

Why is the cool stuff so far away, some nice stuff here.

Re: Pictures of 1960-66 campers please
 

here's one

Re: Pictures of 1960-66 campers please
 

It looks like those campers are "Dreamer's"....see post #39.

Re: Pictures of 1960-66 campers please
 

No kidding.
That's just about the most slide-in camper I have ever seen all in one truck at the same time.
The suspension makes it look like a piece of cake.
