Vehicle Description
1972 Chevy C-20 Truck w/ DELUXE CAYO CAMPER TRUE TIME CAPSULE If
you visited a museum that specialized in vintage Camper Rigs of the
past......this is what you would expect to see. This mind blowing
true Time Capsule truck and CAYO Camper will astonish you. The
truck and camper have been mated together for over 50 years. First
the truck......a 1972 Chevy C-20 with a 350 V8 and it's the
original engine. It is date coded 1972 on the valve cover. It runs
beautifully. Its mated to a 4 speed on the floor standard
transmission which shifts through the gears as designed. The truck
also has power front disc brakes and the original interior is in
wonderful shape. The truck even still has its working CB radio from
yester- years. Another truck note.....I have never seen a Chevy
truck of this vintage with these extra deep dish rear wheels.
They're very kool, designed to handle the extra camper weight. This
rig has always been stored indoors. When we recently bought it, we
jumped in, cranked her up, and drove two hours home with not one
issue. And.....it kept up with traffic pretty good. The truck has
original floor mats, original paint inside and under hood. The top
side has had one repaint. At least I'm thinking it has. The truck
has an incredible body, very very solid. Original floors etc. The
original tailgate is in mint condition, and under the mattress in
the camper. There are a few very small areas of rust on the bottom
of doors. But not bad. Now.......the camper! If you know your
classic campers, you would likely recognize this camper as a Avion
C-10 Slide in. Avion was a competitor to Airstream, but better
quality. But the CAYO family were the original builder and designer
and sold to Avion. So.....with that said, branded as CAYO this unit
is an ultra rare original. The first of this camper series. As the
Treasure Hunter for over 20 years.....I have owned most all the
classic camper brands
