I believe the wheel wells are larger on the 1 ton.

Like was said wheel openings will be larger. It may not matter to you but the 64-66 roof line is slightly taller and squarer than 61-63 which tend to be lower and rounder. On 64 up you can see a style line on the roof above the doors. No line is visble on 61-3. Not a big deal unless you are concerned about keeping it correct for 64.
