I still prefer the hood and appearance of the 67-68 trucks. I believe them to be the best looking...

So much so, in fact, that my '68 Anniversary truck actually uses a 1970 cab, and is titled as such. I built it as a '68 as much as I could, as it's the one I like....

So there you go. True confession. If you know my truck, and see me, you can call me on it and I'll tell you the truth...
Pretty cool information. Thanks!
