Here is a great site, that is filled with good ideas for '60-'66 Chevy trucks.

There are many others sites, that have great information. I canvass the web all the time to find information. I have also collected manufacturer's literature that is geared toward dealer options and factory options, available on these trucks. eBay is a good source for this type of literature.

My brother-in-law got a hold of a 62 SWB thats in pretty bad shape, but was a loaded truck. It has some things on it that I never knew were available in 62. The things that I saw that caught my attention on it was a windshield washer and factory automatic with a column shift. I always thought that that stuff came later. This truck has a big back window, all the trim, fancy steering wheel....You can tell it was top of the line back then...

I also know factory A/C was available...not sure what year that started...but I usually see that on 64-66's.

A few of the unusual accessories that I have seen, per the 1966 Silver Book, are:

speed control (later called cruise control)
underdash ash tray (an option on A/C equipped trucks)
dash mounted clock (on top of dash)
dash tachometer (installed in right window of factory gauge cluster)
power assist steering (power steering ram vs. power steering pump)
power brakes (Moraine or Bendix)
lift stop cable (on right and left side of engine attached to frame rail)
stainless steel windshield wrap
stainless steel back window wrap
three point lap belts
A/C
spotlight
saddle tanks
passenger side arm rest
passenger side sun visor
big back glass
2-speed Powerglide automatic transmission
3-speed Hydramatic automatic transmission
283 V8 ('60-'66)
327 V8 ('66)
reverse lights
anodized aluminum grille
anodized aluminum Custom Cab sails
anodized aluminum body trim
sun shades
2-speed wipers & fluid resevior
cigarette lighter
glove box light
keyed alike door handles, glove box and ignition
chrome dog dish hub caps
auxillary overload springs
Jr. West Coast mirrors
chrome/black dash knobs

If I had my Silver Book, I would provide the RPO numbers for each of these dealer/factory options.
