A Question for the Masses....

Having seen some rarities in my life I was wondering the following, Was there a Panel Truck made in 1961-1966 either by a coach builder or some other company. I am not talking about the Econoline series, I am referring to the F series, it seems like I have seen this kind of truck on tv shows from the sixties and almost wonder if not on some military posts. I know the look of the 1960 Panel in fact a guy has mated the 1966 front end to the 1960 panel end to make his own. His body lines were off and in places it looked way wrong. Just wondering

Panel trucks go back to the 50s. They were very similar to the old chevy suburbans.
Not sure what year they stopped making them.

AFAIK there were no Slick panel trucks build (61-66). There were "Fridgeside" panels but 1960 was the last year.
