1967 Only or 60-66 Carry Over?

[BMERDOC]

My passenger side roof is indented for a passenger visor. I just thought about it but its too dark to take a good pic of it.

[Chvy2NV]

how about the front parking lamps ? Im not sure if I have the right ones as the PO changed out the rears for some clear LED ones. Im currently looking for the OE rears

[BMERDOC]

Ok a couple more pics. My tail lights are repros. I dont know why they chose the waffle style if the Bullseye covered more of the years. Notice the Disc brake sticker and the low "Speed bump" on the gate. I wont be keeping the 3OTT colum but here is a picture of the extra hole.

[BMERDOC]

Dang! Just looked back! My cell phone takes some good pics! I just rebuilt the steering stuff in that old square in the background on saturday. I'll be posting info on that in my alignment thread soon enough.

Great pics guys I will take a few of my stuff in the next few days. I agree we should gather all the info and pics here and get it all straight then make an FAQ with a bunch of good pics. Did anyone mention becnh seats that fold forward yet? One of you guys without a passenger visor needs to get a good pic for this. I have a 67 ashtray and a 68? ashtray and the 67 ash tray slides metal on metal while the 68 up has a ball bearing slide with cigarette extinguisher in the slide plate thingy.

[Chvy2NV]

Hmm. I have 2 visors. My ash tray seems to be 67. And my bench folds fw. I'll get some pics tomorrow.

Good info in here. I just bought a 67 that I think is mostly original. I will have to study up and compare!

Oh, and whoever mentioned the parking lights going out when headlights are on is a lifesaver. One of the first things I was going to do was try to figure that "problem" out. I never would have thought!

The reason they use the waffle style is no one currently re-pops the bullseye style ones... I agree that they should have made those since it was 3yrs+ on that style...must have been easier/cheaper to do the waffle...

[special-K]

When repro parts started coming out it was all about '72s. Those were the first parts reproduced

[Chvy2NV]

I guess the other question is.. how do we keep our 67's original, if you can only get reproduction parts..

It has the correct door pulls but I dont know if the window cranks are correct, they do match. When I too ka pic of the GB door I realized that the correct texture is on it it just does't have the Argent Silver trim. I had an error mesage for the email of my gate and seat so I'm gonna try and resend them. The bench is the correct base spring seat and the gate is a later one. A complete dead giveaway is that it has the Disc brake sticker on it.

The door pulls that came with my truck are different than yours, first two pics. The ones you have look like the re pops I bought, second two pics.

door handles are correct 67, octogan keys are correct 67, ive seen those rear views in 66 down but that may be a carryover for the beginning of 67's but not sure mine has a different dimm lever, choke knob is incorrect. No idea on the blinker know.

[midniteblues]

my dim lever my be a earlier peice idk by the way the screw looks it sure doesnt looks like its never been removed. but my short fleet has the same mirror just a differnt lever.

[southern parts]

the lower front part of the rear wheel arch is more square (like a suburban).
the 68 and up are rounded. The ones in my driveway are anyway.

that's one I hadn't heard/noticed before....have any pictures to add to this thread to show the difference?

[midniteblues]

Since a couple asked, this is the best pic i could get of the visor dimples

[midniteblues]

Lol Forgot the pic again

[southern parts]

the first pic is from a 67 , second pic is from a 68. i have at least 1 truck from every year 67-72 , only the 67`s are squared off in front of the wheel

[j ripper]

Nice one southern parts. I just looked at mine. It's square. Never noticed.

Sorry I have been slacking on reporting back so here is my contribution for the week. A complete comparison of ash trays coming right up!

[67c10rustbuket]

67 vs 68+ ash trays, differences.

The '67 ash tray is blue and the 68+ is black splatter

First pic- you can see the 68+ ash tray has a ball bearing slider where the 67 is just a steel channel that slides.

Second pic- side profile 68+ on top 67 on bottom, The whole ash tray is shaped differenty. You may notice the face plate is different as well. The 67 is flatter and shorter in height but is longer in length.

Third and fourth pic- detail of the face. see the difference?!

fifth pic-top view, 68 left, 67 right. notice how much longer (depth) the 67 ash tray is. Also the cigarette extinguisher on the back of the face is different.

Thats ok cause I was stareing at the kid's 67 the other nite and realized omg we gave away the wing windows!

the kid picked up some later nice chrome wing's and deicded to use them and after sitting around for so long the oe one's got put into a free box at a swap meet couple of years ago before we ever knew they were differnt.

somebody got a good deal!

after the stare down and realizeing what happened i could kick myself for having made that comment too you

[Chvy2NV]

I asked Jonathan about the 67's having shoulder belts. He said only 67-68 had shoulder belts. I had no idea. I thought the newer trucks brought them.

Bump or a great thread
