Re: My 61 Build (Grandfathers truck clone)

All of the front sheet metal will bolt up just fine. The one issue will be the bed. The mounting holes in the cross sills of the '61 bed will be farther apart side to side, than on a '63-'66 bed. There are a couple of ways to fix that. One is to replace the cross sills with later model parts. You could extend the bed mounts on the frame. Or you could extend the plates on the bottom of the cross sills and drill new holes farther in.
