66 parts and steel rims
Permalink  
 


I plan to make the bow-tie lunch in Jan.  I have a few things mostly from 66 that I am interest in selling.; but I am not big on loading the pickup up and the rest of it.  I have a 66 block, heads, and an intake along with some other engine parts and some random 66 parts like radios,wipers,  etc. Also some 14x6 disc brake steel rims and some 15x6 disc brake steel rims.  If you need anything for a 66 I might have it.  Just ask.  Maybe something will work out.

I need one front bumper bracket frame clip. Its the U bolt that clips onto the frame and the bumper braket bolts up to this spot.

Do you or anyone know, if a radio out of a 66 would fit a 65? I know the gauge clusters changed, but I don't know if the radio did. I would be interested in the radio if it worked.

Nope... A '64 won't fit either (had one from my '64).
GM did funny stuff with the shaft depths and chrome bezels year to year. They kept the main chassis basically the same, and just restyled the chrome "nose" to fit a particular model's dash.

I wound up scouring Evilbay for a unit, and took a gamble on a "don't know if it works" '65 AM radio. Paid a pretty good chunk for it, but it did work.

 I am pretty sure the radio will not interchange.  A 66 will fit a 67 but there are little differences in the appearance.  

Also most radio's you find will be AM, not many am stations today except 740.  66 AM/FM that are original go for $700+,  most  people put in retro fit am/fm when not concerned about originality.

 AMK make a nut that will work,  page 60 of their catalog,    B-11404.  The main difference being that the overall length is 2" instead of 1 5/16".
