66 SPID sticker language - share and learn!

As long as we are discussing the details of the SPID stickers, I wonder why mine is the only one with the white band and number at the top? My guess is that it was probably not meant to be there. Does this make my truck more rare/valuable? lol

good question. My 66's SPID (shown below) did not have the white stripe on top. In later trucks (a 72 shown below, bottom), the white stripe was there - and sometimes numbers were in them.... And I don't, for the life of me, know what they mean. Maybe yours was a very late production year 66 truck (?) and they switched over to the 67-72 SPID style? (doesn't look like that - yours still has the "serial #" nomenclature vice the "VIN" label). But, I did note that the number in the top white row of the 72 and your 66 is a 6 digit # - some sort of sequence, etc?? Maybe production line info/sequential, who knows. It doesn't seem to correspond to anything else in the VIN ending numbers, etc.
