1965 Chevrolet C20 Pickup & 1975 Dolphin Camper (Old Fred)

[@terryswails1191]

Those trucks and campers were so much fun, I would love to have one again .

[@rvick2010]

wish I had of found this earlier. Man I would have scooped this up quick

[@daleroberts8772]

I had a 1965 c-20 3/4 ton 292 six with a 4 speed! Loved that truck sold it to a friend whose daughter and son in law has restored it back to orignal condition! And has took home many trophies at car shows? Beauitful trucks wish i had it now

[@andrewjackson9853]

I turned 16 in 1986, Dad gave me his '66 C-10 with the 283 and a 2-speed slip and slide. Loved that truck. . . Drunk hit me head-on at 50 miles and hour, I walked home without a scratch. RIP ole Chevy, u saved me.

[@dougrogillio2223]

I have one exactly the same. Mine is a Columbia Blue 66 with the giant camper. My uncle bought it new in 66 & gifted me with it in 98. Many awesome childhood memories were made. Still has its original 283 engine (rebuilt once), auxiliary fuel tanks, power steering, power brakes, under dash A/C. The truck currently has 420,000 miles on it.

[@elisandrosaenz7242]

NOT MANY IN DECENT SHAPE AROUND ANYMORE.

[@jjcastleberry3662]

The column shift is how I learned to drive back in the '70s.

[@MDI-RestorationMinistry]

Beautiful, you can deliver it to my home anytime!

[@dougscustomcargarage3434]

My grandpa had one just like that with camper too. Lot of memories seeing this video

[@mdlclassworker3384]

Just a FYI these old Chevies with saddle tanks had a total capacity of 80 gls of fuel, 20 on the main and 2 30gl saddle tanks

[@TheMarinemom02]

That is absolutely gorgeous

[@genesimons6772]

I"m not sure if you still have this unit but if you do, to fix that refrigerator all you have to do is remove it and flip it upside down for two days. The chemical/salt ammonia mixture due to sitting long periods of time will clump/pack together at the bottom. This clogs the system and keeps it from flowing during the heating process. The mixture is heated and sent through jets like a chiller creating cooling. I have had 8 pickup campers in my lifetime and the older ones are the best, just have to keep the roof and seams sealed and they last forever. OLD Fred is awesome.

[@roycelane8318]

She's beautiful all the way right down to the 3 in a tree and that vintage Ford air conditioning.. The interior of the camper is beautiful a very well kept time capsule

[@roderickrayrutledge2740]

Absolutely beautiful!!!🥰♥️🥰🙏♥️♥️♥️🙏♥️🥰

[@jaygraef5922]

This is neat. I had a buddy at the time and helped rebuild the engine and install the camper. The camper was really overloaded for the truck. He had to install springs. And it was slow.

[@TheCensoredConservative]

Dang I miss my '63!!! 3 on the tree~ Beautiful ride.

[@donzimmer4616]

Clean classic. Love it.

[@rono3045]

Well that 350 BFGoodrich engine has lifter ticks going on I could hear it.. LOL

[@alvashoemaker8536]

An AMAZING tuck and camper; LOVE the 50's vibe; a very good buy--- THANKS for dhowing this--- 😃🙃👣

[@jipsiemune]

,Such a Handsome truck I just love old Fred , wow lov the camper

[@HELENGodLoves]

I was just telling my better half about the three in the tree transmission shifters!!

[@robertmcjimpsey5541]

Blast from the past.AWSOME!!!!

[@nedaCFilms]

Holy crap this is so freakin cool!!!! Love it!

[@OfficerLarryNMSE]

It's got a great Anti Theft Device, it's called "3 on the tree..."

[@bradkennett7504]

lol very good...

[@SoundwaveX7]

No one would be able to get very far without grinding up the transmission.

[@larrywolfe9923]

If you can't drive 3 on the tree you must not be a very good driver.

[@johnnyarnett2392]

Love it I had a 1964 just like this with out the camper. And u right I bet there not many can change them gears I used to love mine

[@ricktalbott9611]

Hell I can drive that... oh wait I'm 57 lol :)

[@breakdownbill1]

camper is a Fairhaven style,,one of the best styles ever built. I have blueprint plans to build one,,may give it a shot

[@brandond73]

My first "car" was a 72 Chevy C10 Custom. Had a 350 and 3 on the tree.

[@andrewtorres4032]

3 on the tree reminds me of my dad's 1962 Studebaker pickup truck!

[@nathanduckeorth806]

3 on the tree ain't seen that forever! Hell you could leave the keys in that nobody would know how to steal it lol

[@herbienbrian2]

The embodiment of freedom

[@motorhomeman1949]

That's just an incredible setup! The inside of that camper is phenomenal! But with how original everything is, I think it's really lame that the truck just has a crate engine. I'd at least wanna find a period correct engine to go in it.

[@Ka9radio_Mobile9]

Its very nice video and camper!

[@vidson7]

Wow I have the same exact camper. It just needs a little TLC. Is a 1974 Dolphin Co.

[@user-xs4fe5tw4b]

Looks like old Fred can handle the load.. ( the camper ) Fred looks solid....I'd buy him but I'm so broke I can't pay attention...

[@danc.369]

Thats my kind of rig.Had a 79 Dodge motorhome,had an 8' truck camper from the 70's,my next one will be from the 70's also,good,strong built rigs.

[@deletethis5489]

i worked on a 63 with the 3 on the tree. with a bad front bearing on the input shaft on the trans and no factory body bushings it was brutal. in 1st and 2nd gear it sounded and felt like a roller coaster at full speed. new bearing , night to day

[@warrenwhitman3005]

Even has center dumper manifolds. Nice

[@Aldo-zp8wk]

My dad had a 1970 GMC pickup with 6 Pac-Weekender, it was nice.

[@dimthecat9418]

I don’t know why, but I find it funny at 2:15 the steering wheel is so huge, you could place your hand on your knee pretty comfortably

[@michaeldesilvio9980]

it's just like it was back in the sixties.

[@goodbonezz1289]

Amazing

[@davidross6478]

Excellent rig...

[@dewaynemiguel3349]

Reminds me of my dads he had a 1962 chevy pickup inline 6 with 3 on the tree with a 1969 week ender 10 1/2 foot cabover camper then he bought a 1966 f250 in 1971 and put a hayboom on the pickup we put hundreds of thousands of miles on them

[@craigslistrro709]

Nice old setup, great for roadtrips on secondary roads. I wouldnt want to push that setup on todays 70mph freeways.

[@grayeagleswolves]

Hi Guys I love The Truck and Love the camper y'all are doing it right I'm such a fan # wheeler dealer on Dish Network

[@tomschweikert9537]

there was a similar truck on the showroom floor when my dad bought his 65 suburban except it might have been a 3/4 ton with a frame mounted camper

[@robertwilliams3322]

Nice rig

[@mikezilch4882]

so pretty

[@bradkennett7504]

Very Very nice, I have a 64 Chevy pickup, I put a 283 in her, and now she's crying out for a 4th gear, I won't give up my 3 on the tree, so we ride at 55. Just wanted to add the 64 rides better than my 2012 2500 Chevy. Love that comment below mine Anti Theft Device.. ( SEE THE USA IN YOUR CHEVROLET )

[@miked1765]

Back in the early 80’s I had a Chevy half ton with a 283 and 3 on the tree. It was much rougher than this truck but ran great.

[@owenmclain3327]

283 was a good engine and manual, half ton, that was a nice work horse.

Knuckle Berry but it’s is great choice of a diesel with plenty of torque to get get that heavy rig rolling and fuel mileage would be awesome! You would be able to use it and enjoy traveling in a classic, that’s my point! And for a LS swap, the only one worth a shit in imo is the Ls7

[@royphelps8084]

Wonder who put a older than pre 64 grille in it , all 64 to 66 grilles looks alike to me , that one looks 63 , or 62

[@elisandrosaenz7242]

THAT GRILL WAS DA FIRST THING I NOTICED; AA 1963. I KNOW THESE TYPE OF TRUCKS. A 63; NOT 62. A 62 IS COMPLETELY DIFFERENT.

[@carlv8168]

@@elisandrosaenz7242 Same here.....that '63 grille stood out like a sore thumb the second I opened this video. Original owner must've favored the looks of the '63, so he swapped out the orig '65 grille. That was a common thing to do back in the day, since the mounting points were the same.

All that on that old Chevy, they don’t make them like that anymore, you be looking at at least a 3500 series mordern ttuck
