I saw my first one on Saturday. It was a beat up C20, with a load of cattle feed in the back, but it was a 50th!

My Daily-Driver: '72 Chevy LWB Custom/10. Rebuilt 350, 300 HP thanks to a few go-fast goodies. Ochre with a white top. Future plans include a frame off restoration, and maybe a blown 383.

Question

This may sound stupid but what is a 50th anniversary truck. Are all 68's 50th or do they have something different about them. Let me know because there is a 68 for sale in a near by town. I just saw it the other day. I haven't got details on it yet though. Thanks

No every 1968 is not a 50th Anniversary truck, but every Chevrolet dealership in the USA received at minimum one of these trucks.
The 68 50th Anniv. trucks received a special paint job of 2 tone Gold & Ivory other than the paint option & all being Fleetsides nothing else seems to have been guaranteed to have been included on a 50th other than all Gold & Ivory Fleetside trucks in 1968 being 50th Anniversary trucks only. Some were SWB, others LWB, and others were long horns, some got a ton of options and others were almost base model trucks. Most didn't even have bucket seats.
