Factory prices for 1966
So I have been doing some research on my 66 and have traced and spoken to every owner back as far as 1974 and am waiting for contact info on the owner previous to that. Not bad for a 48 year old truck. I have been able to find out that the base price on my truck was $2,104 for a fleetside long box and the Big Window was, I think, $69. This was a pretty highly optioned truck. I found out that it was a factory 327, now long gone, Powerglide, also gone, Custom Cab, Big back window. The SPID is gone so I am not sure what other options it came with. Can anyone tell me what the original option prices were? I want to trace this truck to the original dealer if I can. Kline Chevrolet, Belton. Not sure if its Belton MO or Belton TX. The truck spent most of its life in Iowa. I have no plans for full restoration but just want to know the history. Speaking to all these former owners and bringing the truck back to their memory has been real fun. When I get it complete I will put it into a thread. Thanks.
