Heard a new one

[68Stepbed]

Have any of you guys ever met one of those guys who had that rare truck that there wasn't many made or had all the rare options? I met one the over the weekend.

My truck is a 68. The VIN code says it's a 68. It has 68 fenders, grill, and hood. I was sitting in my truck the other day when this guy walks up and asks if it's a 68 or a 69. I said "A 68". He said he had a 69 that looked just like mine. It had the 68 grill, hood, and fenders. He then told me that some early 69's were available with the 68 front clip. My first thought was it had been converted as some people prefer the 68 front clip. This was a new one to me.

My question is, has anyone else heard this one or know if it's true or did this dude have a Heinz 57 variety PU?

Personally, I think it's
