Are they the same. - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Is there any real difference between a 1964 and 1966 C10? Picked up a '66 today for parts for my '64.

Thanks,
Jay

I think the only difference is the c10 emblems. But I could be wrong.

66 is a great year to harvest parts for your truck.

Dash was painted dark fawn with a texturing agent, different steering wheels (deluxe and standard), different deluxe door panel paint scheme, the '66 water temp gauge had different graphics, the gauge bezel was silver instead of black, deluxe seat upholstery was different, kick panel tags had the 250 L6 added, first year for SPID's on glovebox door... can't think of anything else that hasn't been mentioned already.

The 153, 230, 292, 283 was offered in 64, the 194,230,250,292,283,327 was offered in 66. Hydromatic transmission, and emblems. Seat belts. I'll have to read up on more differances.

Early '64 A-arms weren't pre-drilled for the front anti-sway bar.
