I believe the big window option in the 60-66 was the custom cab option, there was more crome on cab, I had a 62 that was a nice looking truck got rid of itt several years back and now have a 67, I had a torsion bar suspension on mine and I believe it was only available two years, 61-62 and heard that GM had gotten sued of it. When I first got the truck it really handled awsum with the sway bars but when I left Texas with it, It was fully loaded and I mean loaded and I believe one of my torsion bars went south, after this the truck didn't handle worth crap and up here they are extremely rare and because they only made them two years finding torsion bars is real hard, ended up trading it for a couple of sporsters. Thats my imput on the subject, not totally sure what people are looking for parts on these things so can't really help you out much here.
