These trucks used 16.5" wide base wheels/tires as standard with tall skinny 16" and 17.5" as options. The slide in camper pretty much requires a heavier chassis than an F-100. The '67/'68 models have a similar grille, '69 is different; with a center badge on grille. Notice the very much needed right hand mirror has been removed. -- Last edit: 2013-10-07 02:30:39
