Chevy C20 4x4 4 spd pickup

[x Baldwin Motion]

very cool. several levels of trim in 69/70 including the Camper Special with the 8 and 1/2 foot bed (I think the longest fleetside ever). Looks like that paint will clean up nice!!

The one pic is a '70...note the subtle verticals in the grille, the slight difference to the 69's..

Camper Specials are cool and I recall thinking how strange they were the first time I looked closely at the box extension pieces..
Is that factory Chevy wood in the box floors?.

ummmmmmm, Camper Specials are FORD's!, which are also a very cool truck but not the same, lol.......Chev is called a Custom Camper and has very cool script lettering mounted on the door up high by door handle.

some facts a guy might be interested in.

Nice website Bud. Thanks for the heads up. Couple more shots of the C20. I noticed it has dual gas tanks too and the front wheel driveshaft is missing. <span style="font-style: italic"><span style="font-weight: bold">Anyone know what kind/manufacturer of tranny should be in this?</span></span> ...

HI i had a 1969 c20 MAKE SURE.... you have lots of money for gas thirsty

Think the trans should be a Muncie...sm465 maybe?

[mockingbird812]

I may have assumed it was a 4 speed. Could it be a 3 speed with a granny gear? what is an &quot;sm465&quot;?

LOL...I guess I did too! sm465 would be the Muncie 4-speed, and a quick check at 67-72chevytrucks.com says the 3-speed manual will be the Saginaw 341/343.

My 72 Short Fleet 4x4 has a 4 speed manual. The first gear is fairly useless for standard driving as it is a non syncroed granny gear. Still fun to drive though.

But it's AWESOME in a hay truck! Put it in gear, get out, and start throwing bales on it! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img]
