These pics are not doing this truck justice. And it has not been really loved in over 5 years.

I must say, I do love the western scroll motiff. It really gives the truck that extra something. But you guy's already knew that!

ALL the lenses on this truck are like new. It is abundantly obvious this truck has seen little sunlight in 53 years. So tell me, how do you energize this cargo light?

All belts, plug wires and hoses are original with exception of top hose. I have not checked the plugs YET.

It holds 3.75 lbs R12. I recovered 1.5lbs. Evacuated & recharged. The little receiver dryer sight plug protective plastic plug is still there. I reinstalled it after all the bubbles disappeared. Like every other A6 compressor the seal will leak worse if not exercised regularly. This one is no exception.

I have an original tag connection and obtained these for the new owner. He was elated. And they are truck tags to boot.

I need your guy's help on locating a extremely nice original jack ,tools & bag or an NOS set. Yeah, good luck right?

It may tell you what the original equipment tires and wheels were. In my experience, tires like that were in 4wd trucks back then, but some differences can obviously exist.

This needs some original steelies and some NOS hubcaps. Super cool.

I've seen upthread that it could still have had 16.5" wheels. I'm not an expert, by any means. Hoping I'm not confusing things in this thread.

This is what I need to know guys! Why I'm here! I have scoured over original 69 brochures, factory photo's online, etc. I have seen white painted wheels with FULL hubcaps, silver painted wheels with s/s dog dish, and two other types of dog dish. What should this 69 C20, CST have?

Dmoore 04-29-2022 10:56 PM

Re: 1969 C20, CST. 396, 21,000 mile documented Survivor
 
Obviously white painted steel wheels against black does not look good, IMO. If it were mine I would have argent painted wheels and those s/s 12" dog dish caps with the blue bowtie just like the one on the forward hood.

Hmmmm, Am I looking at white painted steel wheels with aluminum dog dish? The blue bowtie makes sense matching the one on forward hood.

Dmoore 04-29-2022 11:13 PM

Re: 1969 C20, CST. 396, 21,000 mile documented Survivor
 
Question can you tell if that is a CST package? I ask because no chrome bumpers.

Dmoore 04-29-2022 11:15 PM

Re: 1969 C20, CST. 396, 21,000 mile documented Survivor
 
And would the CST package dictate wheel color and center cap type?

I believe they are chromed pot metal but they could be stainless. They wohave a blue bowtie for sure.

Oh I just meant wheel/tire setup. The truck I pictured has CST emblems but bot sure if that was original to that truck.
