Re: 1969 C20 Custom Camper CST 22.4k original miles

These are all from the day I bought the truck. Gives you an idea what it would look like if you were to paint the wheels white. I've had many say that's what I should have done with the new wheels. I just wanted to try out the original color. The blue tank you see on the passenger inner fender is a Marvel Mystery Inverse Oiler. It introduced Marvel Mystery Oil into the intake via the PCV system. The owner did this instead of installing hardened valve seats when unleaded fuel was mandated. Caused a lot of carbon build up in the combustion chamber and was the reason I rebuilt the motor. It is now .030 over with new pistons which makes it a 402ci instead of the original 396ci. You can also see how much the body mounts had sagged over the years. The lines are now straight with the new body mounts. I still have that rear bumper and hitch BTW, and it will go with the truck if wanted.
