1971 Chevy Info

[Chalmersk9]

Hello,

I am new to the forum and just purchased a 1971 Chevy C20 Custom Camper. I know that the truck was a special order and I am the 3rd owner.

I was wondering if anyone could tell me anything about the Custom Camper as I have researched it some on the net and not been able to find much.

Also the glove box build sheet shows 16 inch tires. It has LT225/75R16 tires on it. I am trying to find out if that is the correct size (aspect etc) tire for the truck.

Any and all help would be greatly appreciated.

greetings,

Nico,

Thanks for the replly. I will double check but I believe the build sheet in the glove box even shows 16 x 8 wheels.

Thanks

My dad bought a 70 CST/20 new and it came stock with 7.50-16 split rims. We replaced them with 12.50-16.5 on 1 piece steel wheels to haul a heavy camper. As far as I know, all 3/4 tons at that time came with split rim 16's.
