    Cool old horse. '66 must have been the 1st year for the wide front. The truck in my avatar was my '72 small window 359, 260w.b., 400 Cummins, 13, 3:70's. Last year for the small window. Selling it was 3rd dumbest thing I did in my life. You can probably figure out the first 2 things.:biggrin_25512:

    Nice!

    It takes me back a little bit. We had some late 70's petes a time or two which cemented my love for them. I'll say that I did not get into a pete too much in my time. It is what it is.

    Don't feel bad, laddie, of all the company trucks I drove ( 20-30 maybe, IDK) I never drove a Pete until I got my own. I'd drive nothing but now.
