Re: Weird options

I had a 6cyl '69 C/20 Stepside with gauges, AM, and Powerglide options. What was odd is it was ordered with Special Paint. It was a light gray and all 5 wheels were painted a deep red, yes from factory with chalk marks. What I find as most odd is you would think it would have been ordered as a company vehicle with the special paint, but never got lettering or logos. I would think a company that pays to have their trucks all match for recognition would also put their name on it. If it was a private special order it is odd to be that concerned about the color while not caring for much of any other options. We have a regional farm cooperative (Southern States) that uses those two same colors and I have wondered if they didn't order it and not claim it. It was also very low mile when I bought it about 10 years ago.
