Looks good.

I have had mine for a month, and have only done a couple of drives around the block since it is not registered yet.

LOOKS SWEET, VOL !
Did you ever look up the VIN to determine if it really is a '65 with some '66 trim?
So tell us the rest of the story - what trans does it have?
What do you plan to do with it - daily driver, Saturday night cruiser, or what?

Kinda trivial, but FYI: The brake and clutch pedal pads are on upside down. The smooth portion belongs at the top.

Great looking truck VOL,
Glad it worked out for you...nice to see the original radio too. If you get the
firewall pad and insulation back in, she'll be a lot quieter...lets see some engine images.
Have fun,
Jason
