New toy 72 Custom Camper Highlander - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Ozark Tim · 11-18-2015, 05:21 PM

Found this and couldn't resist.
Original paint, no rust and cool options too. There was a cover over the original seat. That's 2 in a row I lucked out on that way with no tears in the original seat.
Not quite sure what the red paint on the wheels was about but an incredibly solid truck.

cooperhw · 11-18-2015, 05:31 PM

Wow. That is one optioned up dude. Very good score for sure. Ditch the red wheels or at least the red and that truck is sharp.

Ozark Tim · 11-18-2015, 05:35 PM

Thanks yes it does have some nice options.
The wheels will get painted white and the stock hub caps will go on.

**too much stuff** · 11-18-2015, 06:05 PM

You sure know how to find them!
Nice.

Sicklajoie · 11-18-2015, 07:09 PM

Sweet truck! Congrats!
I'm diggin those mudflaps!!!

**lolife99** · 11-18-2015, 07:13 PM

Very nice truck.
Great score!

Bladeboy1998 · 11-18-2015, 08:43 PM

Holy options batman! Lol I'm not going to lie, freshen up the red and put some dog dish caps and that wouldn't look too bad. I kinda like it, lol great find man!

JCD · 11-18-2015, 09:15 PM

Great truck..
Seems we've got the same vehicle, give or take an option or so.

It's interesting how the option codes are written up differently.
And in another order.
Anyone know why?
Different assembly plant maybe?
Lazy worker on a Friday?

**jocko** · 11-18-2015, 09:16 PM

That's a nice one! Have a soft spot for Custom Camper Highlanders! Congrats, looks like a very solid truck w/great options.

71swb4x4 · 11-18-2015, 09:49 PM

That is a very nice truck, congrats!

The options are written in alphabetic order according to their option code.

Very cool !
What does the wife say? Mine just shakes her head and walks away...
Lol

Ozark Tim · 11-18-2015, 10:28 PM

Thanks all for the nice remarks.
The mud flaps say " colorful Colorado" and it spent its life in Pueblo.
Yes it's looks like they are very similar and yes the plants in those days did it all a touch different on the spid and some other things too like emblem placement and so on.
My wife just says "green again, when are you going to get a pretty one" lol

Great find - congrats!

**68350** · 11-19-2015, 12:34 AM

Impressive find, love it

joeydurango · 11-19-2015, 12:35 AM

How did you find that in Pueblo if you're in MO? I didn't see it listed anywhere, and I'm only five hours away. In any case, nice work!

Malamute · 11-19-2015, 12:46 AM

Nice find. I never saw that one on CL here either.

Ozark Tim · 11-19-2015, 09:59 AM

Not sure it was listed
I have a friend out in Colorado and his neighbors uncle had it for sale.

**Joesjunk** · 11-19-2015, 02:58 PM

Tim, you have been finding all the green ones lately

Ozark Tim · 11-22-2015, 10:15 PM

I know it Joe!
I seem to always wind up with custom campers, auxiliary fuel tank, and green.
I really don't mind though.

Answer: When I become a woman

Start looking in Canada and maybe you'll find a pretty pink one like Already Gone had

**j_cst_10** · 11-23-2015, 10:36 AM

Man that truck is sweet. I was searching a long time before I found a decent one with leafs. Mine was originally from Colorado as well.
