nice to see another 61 short bed, not a lot of them out there, mine has the later style hood, but other than that they are twins. I barely ever see one like mine, only a few in recent memory. You are lucky that it is a family truck, mine is new to the family. I figure that when I get old and crazy then it can be a family truck and it will have family history, but for now it is just my old pickup. I think that the 61's have a charm and style all their own, and in a shortbox they are very unique. Good lookin' truck.
