50th anniv shortbed, AC, nice shape Ebay - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Check out this nice 50th on Ebay. It's a shortbed with AC. It appears to be in great shape. I wish it was less $$, it would be fun to finding something like that for a few grand.

Looking at the G/B Data sheet I realized that:
This truck has the Custom Sport Truck option that has an interior code of 626 for the parch/vinyl trim
The Custom Group trim Z62 has an interior code of 625 for the parch/cloth
Looks as though both trim levels offered a bench seat.
Overall it is a very nice collectable truck.
Thanks for the link

My monitor must reall stink, I can't read any of the sheet.

I saw that one as well. I emailed the seller but I haven't heard anything back yet. If I get more pictures of that one I will post them.

Pretty nice on the whole.

Loose the big fat ugly wheels/tires and put correct stock rear view mirrors on it and you'd improve the looks a lot.

The way the edge of the bench seat is trimmed out looks a little funny to me compared to my 68 CST bench seat. (In the blue)

I think my truck might be a 50th Anniversay how do I tell? It still hase the sticker on the inside of the glove box.

First it would be a 68 year model
The paint code of 551 and interior code of 625 or 626
It would also need the Custom or CST trim group

jugernot · 12-29-2004, 01:24 AM

Thanks is that information on the glove box door or on the cowl tag/vin number?

Hutch · 12-29-2004, 01:25 AM

glovebox door

Price would go higher with stock wheels, tires and full caps or simple ralleys and blackwall tires. I agree on mirror heads too. Sometimes its the little things. I got excited with Ac quote, dealer AC not as desirable.

Still very nice example of 68 model.

A very nice rare truck. I think it's the first short bed 50th I've ever seen. If I had the space I go after it but I've already got one project going. My 68 CST has the same seat material just a different color. It's not original though (mine). I can see it's been recovered.
You have to admit though the truck looks clean for a 68. The rims detract from the value if you ask me, along with not cleaning out the interior and the bed tool box. I'm curious to see what it will bring.
I noticed they stated a TH350 but in 68 they were not available in trucks. I wonder if it is an error or has been changed.
