No some parts are different.

In the list I see front fenders and grill that are different from the earlier trucks.

'55 1st has open driveline meaning trans, drive shaft, rear axle and rear springs are all going to be a little different. The dash and gauges are a little different on a Chevy and a lot different on a GMC.

And of course there is that whole one-piece windshield versus the split-window thing...

Someone should jump on this. Set up shop at a car show or ebay and triple your money plus some.

Re: Lots of parts on craigslist (San Antonio)

I wonder if the model A parts go with it too? I think I see three steel grille shells that have to be worth something. Maybe some fenders too??

Reminds me is anyone else here watching "Pickers" on the history channel??
