1969 Camper Special Step Side

Post by cjc311 »

Hello everyone from sunny and hot southern New Mexico! Picked up a 1969 Camper Special with a 390 in it which I love, a true work horse! I'm hoping you guys can help me on this, its a step side and I can't seem to find another, is this unusual? VIN indicates it came that way, is she that rare, let me know when you get a chance, thanks in advance. Also if I can figure out how to post some photos I will, might help out? Carl in Cruces :yt:

:wel: from SoCal. Yeah, Flaresides are rare in SWB...and even more so in LWB. I personally think they look more utilitarian than Stylesides, in other words, they look great!

Welcome aboard from Northern Ca. That is a rare one. Could the bed have been changed out?
