Re: difference between 67 68 1/2ton chevy gmc

1967 trucks have a flat lookin lever for the kickpanel vents, not sure but all the 67 trucks that I've had the pleasure of haven had only 1 sunvisor but I have never had a custom c/10. Ashtrys are flater in press in a 67.
1967 full bench seats fold forward. Seat belts are a different type buckle type
Heater control face are always black. wiper/headlight/radio knobs are smaller and have a luver type feel to the outer part of knobs, that s the best I can describe it.lol
Whats some more differences?
Maybe some of our elder's of the fine board could give us some info that would link to the chassi or drivetrain!

67 and 68 both do that, they ran a bolt to stop the seat from folding in 69.

i guess they got tired when people got in crashes they didnt want the seat to fly forward and ram them into that nice full metal dash and lets not mention that glove box door
