My 60 is (I believe) all original paint and I have every shred of paperwork going back to the salesman's business card at Penn Toyota on Long Island.... No indication of any body work or paint.
The passenger rear quarter panel appears to have an ever so slightly different finish than the rest of the truck. To the upper left and middle right of the rear window the paint has faded in two small ~circles.
My guess is there are welds underneath? The body seams in the fuel filler door also appear to have been repaired in comparison to others I've looked at... maybe? I thought I remembered seeing a 60 resto at Cruiser Solutions in NH with the exact same spots. I have no need/interest in painting the truck. As long as these areas stay the way they are, I'm more curious to solve the mystery than anything else.
Pics of the two spots below.
