I have the bed off and up side down getting ready to cut out part of a rib so to make room for the rear gas tank .
I need to put a few things togeather on the engine and also in the cab ,,plus exhaust system ,,so I will have a few questions to ask..

Thx ,, first question I have is this::: What year did of chevy truck 67-72 have the screw just below the wing windwow to fasten the inside skin of the door to the outside.? about 2 inches long.
I just finished putting new windows in the doors /wingwindows and with new rubber and all and found that these doors are different from my 71,,as it doesn't have this screw to hold the two skins togeather.
