Re: most original 60-66 truck in existence?

Thanks Bruce , there goes my chances of owning that one.........LOL . Seriously though , this truck is a perfect example of how a white, or off white, truck with the B98 side molding trim option really looks. Meaning , 1 , no other chrome , just factory ordered side moldings over white paint. And , 2 , NO red insert paint or Black insert paint between the moldings on the door and bed . You would have thought that since white trucks are the only ones with black tailgate letters that they would have carried that over to the side moldings , but they did not. This sure is a virgin truck in so many respects.

It also blows out another theory. Notice the steering wheel. 66s used three different wheels. This truck has the same steering wheel as a custom 66 would have instead of the previous year 1965 style plain wheel that was also carried into 66. I was starting to see a pattern that 66s in C20 and up plain janes received the 65 wheel, as it was a beefier wheel compared to this thinner design Nova steering wheel for 66 . NICE TRUCK !!
