panel vs carryall roof structure
i have a suspicion that the interior roof structure is different between a 64-66 panel vs a carryall (suburban). can anyone verify that?

Re: panel vs carryall roof structure
how do you perceive that they are different. are you trying to change a roof?

The GM part number for the roof is 3778826 for 1960-1966 Panel truck and 3778830 for 1961-1966 Suburban. Not sure why they skipped 1960 but most likely a very small change. This is from a 1970 Chevrolet parts book.

There are also sheet metal panels surrounding the windows, too, that I would guess would not be needed on the Panel, therefore exposing more of the structural parts. The horizontal brace above the windows on a Carryall, seems very similar to the panel inner structure. |

Re: panel vs carryall roof structure
Sheet metal screws are what's securing mine in my '65 'Burb, and a few oval headed machine screws
