Re: 67-72 Time Capsules

This is my Time Capsule. Paint is about 75% original. Wheels are Sigman Pitman and were bought new in 1973. Has in-dash 8 track player with under dash cb. Still living in the 70's.

Re: 67-72 Time Capsules

Now there is a time capsule. This is a look straight out of that time. Time capsules, or era-correct, trucks have been my cup of tea since I came to realize trends come and go to only suit the moment. The '71 Cheyenne Custom Camper I bought was a true survivor, all original from the original owner. I gave it a look that suited me while keeping any add-ons from no newer than the truck's time. It already had the camper that had been with it since new that the owner had painted the graphics over in matching paint. I added dual exhaust, aluminum slots with bigger on rear, and a tonneau cover to preserve the wood with camper removed. The truck still looked like it was straight out of 1971 and that is a time capsule

Re: 67-72 Time Capsules

Special K I agree with you. I have been noticing more trucks with the era-correct after market goodies. Back in the early to mid 70,s you were cool if you could afford after market wheels and a 8 track stereo.

The original owner must have liked the goodies. I recently looked at one of the GM assessor catalogs and it looks like the original owner picked a few of them and had them installed.

Truck is unrestored but has an older re-paint.

Re: 67-72 Time Capsules

Another gem............

The original owner of my truck liked goodies as well. I couldn't wait to take the saddle tanks off and replace the bed. Then there was the boat launching hitch welded to the front chrome bumper. And the four braces welded to the frame for a 5th wheel, which I still need to cut off.....Camper mirrors and a step bumper with a receiver hitch. I still need to cut off the brace for the hitch. A CB set-up, which the only remnants are holes and possibly the harness I've yet identified.

I wasn't quite so lucky. But I can't complain too much. Has all the paper work, primary stickers, no rust, and a lot of parts that remain show quality or close enough. Blown away by the condition of the leather, less the bench seat.

Well yeah....There were fewer people, things made more sense, the vehicles were cooler, music and entertainment were much better...............Music FAR better. I dig fairly deeply into music, and can post (literally) about 140 GREAT selected tunes from the 70s, and that excludes songs done by my favorite artists. Tastes differ, but I can't even locate that many for the 2010s, great artists or otherwise. Few decent bands out there though, such as Dead Weather, Starsucker (replace middle S with F), Alabama Shakes..... Still some quality.

So the graphics are the same, he just matched the color to that of the truck? Regardless, those graphics are really cool... I really like the design, clean and simple.

I hear you there. Agreed. And I wasn't even alive in the seventies, just grew up through the eighties and nineties listening to the seventies! Still do, as part of my daily mix.

Re: 67-72 Time Capsules

The black 69... Wow!

This thread gives me something to aim for on one of my builds.
Love survivors and time capsules. Nothing better than factory stock in as new condition in my opinion.

Re: 67-72 Time Capsules

Closest I ever got was a 25k mile '48 Chevy 1 ton I sold to get my '72 & a '86 IROCZ I sold to my friend in '99 that had 42k at the time and now only has 44k.

Re: 67-72 Time Capsules

Here's a truck I'm trying to get from my work... I can't buy it from them so I have to contact the company that buys from us. 832 miles on it and it would make an awesome doner for a 4 wheel drive C-50. 292 and all I'd use everything.

Joe, I don't know how you find these things. Nice one! You must have a warehouse somewhere... I know they're not all gonna fit in that garage.
