Re: The seldom seen 1966 Sport Trim option - a REAL short wideside has been found!
Must be my lucky day....
I am brand new to the forum and have admired old trucks for as long as I can remember. I decided to by a project truck and found a 66 fleet side with the body in amazing condition. the rust behind the front wheels is the only spot where there is damage. The rest of the truck is super solid including the floorboards and other than some missing trim pieces everything is there...
What I found out today (from you) is that my interior is exactly the custom sport trim package you described. I am excited to know I lucked into a rare option but not sure what that means in terms of value and the direction i should go in restoration.
I guess the one "negative" is that the previous owner put a 500ci Cadillac Eldorado Motor and TH400 transmission.
Like I said I have only been a classic truck owner for about 3 days so I am sure I will have a ton of questions....
