Re: Vintage picture thread
I came across this photo that shows a bit of my old Custom Camper at a friend's place in the '80s

Re: Vintage picture thread
What are we looking at? Easy a '68 C10. Not so easy, what wheels are being used? Front wheels are 15" lock ring type. Rear wheels are wide base solid 16.5". ( rear hubcap is an incorrectly repainted '61-'63 C 10 cap). Mirrors are typical aftermarket west coast type. GemTop shell. Common scene back in the day.

Re: Vintage picture thread
I had a pair of 5-lug 9.75 x 16.5 rims on the rear of a '72 C/10. 8.25s went on the front. I ran 10.00 hiway and 12.00 M&S 8-ply bias. I do recall seeing 8-ply 15" tires and wide steelies, but I guess the 16.5s were more commonly available? I don't remember now, but floatation tires from the factory were only offered in 16.5

Re: Vintage picture thread
^^^ Notice how they used the GMC as a centerpiece to give the Buicks a touch of class

Re: Vintage picture thread
I think its interesting that GMC sold with non GM, probably since Chevy lots sold Chevy cars and trucks.
In the 60's my dad sold cars at a Chrysler Plymouth GMC dealer. In the mid 70's he sold at a GMC only place. The commercial trucks to the everyday trucks.

Re: Vintage picture thread
Nice set-up. Except I never liked the idea of towing with the bumper slid out. That's why I got out of my '71 camper rig. I wanted an 8' low-profile camper so I could tow and haul kayaks on top without getting a nose bleed
