If you had a 555 paint code (two tone Saddle and white) paint code with chrome bumpers, trim and fawn interior on a burb, it would look "real" close to a 50th. The paint colors are very similar.

71402bb on the board has one of these 555 paint code '50th Look a Like' burbs. But I don't think his has chrome bumpers or side trim. He has pictures he can post

If you had that 555 paint code on a pickup it would be a little easier to tellthat it was not a 50th, because you could not get the correct gold/parchment interior. Also, It would have the white top, but not the white lower panels. In 1968, it was only the 50th Anniversary pickups that had the lower panels painted white when they were ordered two tone.
