I like it a lot. How about some pics of the interior and maybe one of the Warranty Plate and I'll add it to the list?

I did notice the tailgate is a 1967-1972 style but that's fairly common since they are a bolt on swap. Hood ornament is 1965-66 V-8 type, but again, looks correct to 99.9% and it's a direct swap.

I like the wheel covers.

Nice. What is under the hood? Also if you don't mind saying. What did you have to give for it? And what part of the country is it?

I really like the white top, I might do that to mine next time I paint it, but patina is in so it might be a while. Oh and be carefull where you park some jerk stole my hub caps. I put some modern rims on it for now, bcs my son liked them better... Keep it on the road.

Those are not steps. They are exhaust tips.

I seldom use the terms interchangably, but yes, technically that would be a hubcap since it doesn't cover the entire face of the wheel. However, if a person searches on wheel cover it automatically goes to an article about hubcaps. I must have lost my mind there for a minute....LOL

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hubcap

What about that part number for the larger stainless steel Type 1 hubcaps. Did you get a chance to look that up?

Well that all depends on many things. Is it a complete frame off restoration where every nut and bolt was removed and redone? Was the engine trans and diff rebuilt. Or is it just a paint job on the outside and all the rest was left untouched. A complete restoration like mine will never get you back what you put into it. It also depends what part of the country you are in. I've seen trucks talked about being sold on this site that I said wow. Because here it would never bring that kind of money. Although prices are going up around here.

I think you are wrong on the tail gate. Look into it and get back to me.
