Default 66 backup light and tank sticker

Is it possible that late model 66s came with a center mounted backup light and tank sticker only found in 67 models??

Only if it was a small block with a big block hood!

Looks like it is sold for 42500.00. Some things never add up no matter what you do. Sure looks like a 66 but that backup light? Tank Sticker (if it is real)... Are those 67 seat covers? Looks like a power antenna, rear tail light bezels missing... Just plain weird.

If you look at the delivery date on the tank sticker is reads "Date Received - 05-18-67". Very difficult for a 66 vette to be delivered in May of 67.......... Also, it has the 65/ early 66 seat belt buckle holders on the center console. This thing is a complete mismatch that someone pawned off, if indeed a real person bought it.

The Brits would call it a "Bitsa".

Bits of this and bits of that.
