Factory 1960 Apache matching #s engine and automatic trans?

[doobiebro]

I want to tell my horrible experience and make it short fellas...My 9 yr build was involved in an accident. Me and the wifey were okay and I believe my truck saved our lives because it could of been worse... 17 yr old kit t boned my truck at 50mph and the insurance co. totaled it and compensated me for the property damage. I retained my truck because of too much sweat, tears and sentimental value with my girls..


Went on a road trip (7 hrs one way) and found me a donor truck for parts..
Truck has history with a U.S. Air force base and 1 owner. The seller says it has a matching #s 6 cylinder engine and factory automatic. How do I verify this? Is this a rare option because I've been around these trucks all my life and never seen one especially early 60s 60-63? Killer pantina and perfect grill. I don't have the heart to tear this truck apart but have no interest in restoring her!! What do you fellas think? Like to hear some opinions....
