Hahaha....close but no, the 61 is a short stepside w/ big window, but its roof has been ripped off and its so rusty its just too far gone to save as it sits, so since both trucks are identical minus the hoods I am considering using the 62's body and drivetrain to re-birth the 61 by swapping hoods basically (I like 60-61's best of all 60-66's) and make it run and drive etc until a nicer body reveals itself then I'll maybe breath life into the 62 at that time. Body parts and cabs come and go here at my house, so I can rebuild the pair over some time
