Thanks for taking the time and sharing. I'm putting together a 64 but from what you showed me the frame I have is a 65 or 66 as the track bar has the threaded post on the rearend.

I'm happy to help. It could just be that the rear end was changed out with a 65 or 66 rear end because I think were the tracking bar goes on the frame is the same. But at the end of the day when it's going down the road no one knows.

‘66 was the first/only year the 327 was an engine option. I believe you are correct on the 2-speed wiper switch, ‘66 only. Also, A/C became available as a dealer-installed option in ‘64. It was available from the factory starting in ‘65. I’ve read that seat belts became a government mandate in ‘66, however the only seatbelts I’ve ever seen in these trucks have always been something that an owner added. My ‘66 did not have them when I bought it and there is zero evidence it ever had them. It’s a shame seeing that ‘64 large rear window cab rusting away like that. Guys everywhere are hacking up small rear window cabs to convert them. I think that’s a shame too. The small rear window cabs are one of those quirky/cool things that make old trucks more interesting than new ones.

We have a 55 that came factory with a 327 and a turbo 400 three speed trans. Its a 3/4 ton and has a 456 no spin differential. We have videos on our channel. One truck is a 60 that came with a V8 automatic and big back glass. and no stainless trim. Also the 6o thru 63 custom cabs have stainless steel cab sails. The GMC's had rear leaf springs.

Interesting video. If you really want to mess up what you know, look into Canadian GMC's. They were designated 910, 920, and 930. Both our 64 and 65 had the serial number plate between the driver's door hinges. The 65 has 2 speed wipers with an electric washer pump. Both trucks have Chev inline sixes and coil springs. They just played by different rules.

so the frame is the same, you only showed the rear axle difference.

So what if any is the difference in the frame on a 64/65/66

I've been involved in these truck for 40 years and have been actively restoring them for a living for nearly 20 years. That being said, I didn't take the time, to view your video again, to provide commentary and/or corrections. One component is, each year of the '60-'66 Chevy trucks, Panels & Suburbans, has a one-year-only body badge and a year-specific location, as well as a Series-specific designation. Additionally, standard equipment, verses RPO's (regular production options), were clearly identified in the Chevrolet Truck Sales Data Book for years '60-'66.
