Re: build of a 1966 c-20 custom camper

It is a 1966 c-20 built in Fremont Ca 10-29-65 Sold at Vista Chevrolet in Chino Ca. It was sold to a lady to go camping in . I am the 3rd owner. The 1st owner had it from 1966-2008. The second 2008-2011. When I bought it it has 60000 miles . It now has 61000 . The second owner told me when he bought it the mileage was 58000. The second owner said the original camper was still in it . When he removed the camper from the truck the camper fell apart. The truck is rust free no holes in the floor, rockers fenders etc. I wish my red truck was this nice to start with. it was optioned with 327 turbo 400 custom camper option 21 gallon tank . it also was factory ps. I believe the 1st owner had the dealership install it 357 rear end . My plans are back to stock . I will install factory air tach vaccum gauge. and Detroit rear locker from my spare parts supply. I hope all goes well . Body goes to media blasting next week , than to body and paint. I will tearing the frame down during this time , getting it ready for the motor tranny and than body parts . Yes Bruce it had a repaint sometime in the 80s ? It looks like they painted the truck with the camper on. crappy paint job
