Dad had a '60 Chevy 3/4ton stepside when I turned 16 and legally started driving. 261-6 and SM-420 Trans. It had a Detroit Locker in the rear axle, had a data plate riveted on inside of back wall of cab. Ground the tread off tires quick but got stuck much less than the '56 F-350 pickup it replaced.
305, 4-speed. I don't know why they don't just call it a 3 speed with House Mover Mode.
