Re: is there a difference in a 67 and a 66 bed?
the more i look at this i think it looks weird. do ya'll think the cab is lopsided? or maybe the bed is not level. he had the bed off the truck but set it on there and bolted it to deliver it. let me know what ya'll think. the first thing i'll have to do is get some grey primer on it. ya'll have any better ideas?
this is what i'm trading for it |

the beds are similar, the fenders/boltholes for the fenders are different.
the white one has the 55-66 fenders: |

I bet the bed is off, Mine is off and has a tilt. One of the angle strips is rusted out where it supports the bed up.
I like the look of the white truck bed better because the "crease"/ line flows from the front of the truck to the back, the blue one's line gets broken up at the back of the cab and the bed because the fenders line is at the bottom unlike the cabs. |

the 67 on up fenders will stick out like a sore thumb (on a 60-66)to everyone who knows anything about classics/hotrods......and they'll let you here about it too, but if thats what you want go for it,
negitive opinions seem to never keep to them selfs when your out in public!
