Slick 60's

You just can't duplicate original!

Very nice find. Congrats.

Beautiful truck and excellent find!

Gotta pile on and agree that you have a terrific find there. Congratulations!

Thanks all for the very kind comments (I have not been on line at all for the past week due to not having a computer). I'll be "transitioning" away from Harley starting in two weeks and should have plenty of time, before I start retraining as a lineman with Met-Ed in November, to document the truck further with photos and I'll share them with the group at that point. If someone needs more specific pictures I'd be happy to send them your way (in a few weeks after my lay-off) just drop me a PM with an email and I'll snap pics of what ever you need. Although this truck has some minor paint touch ups, all in all it is about as stock as you'll find for a 43 year old truck (valve cover color aside!)

I agree, except for the full wheel covers and bumper guards, which did not exist in '65.

AGREED -- THAT IS A BEAUTIFUL TRUCK!

Factorystock,
What about the four fasteners at the corners of the radio speaker grill?
Are those OEM or been added later?

Barnie Trk,

Could be.

Dealers installed radios and antennas as well as optional equipment.

If the factory or the dealer installed the radio, it's what? OEM?

What's factorystock say?

I was wondering about the screws in the speaker too. Perhaps one of the two other PO's did it to keep it from rattling (the first owner was a Rolls Royce dealer in Indiana). The truck sure is tight and rattle free going down the road. Other than some slight wind noise the truck is amazingly quiet.
