Like the 55 Chevy Cameo pickups, there are more of them in existence than ever actually produced. I?m definitely not an expert in this field but judging by the wear and patina I would expect quite a bit more for its age. I do get that there are clean, well loved examples though. Also, the logo on the frame with the pony in the circle doesn?t seem well stamped with makes me mildly suspicious. That really isn?t a high wear area and I would think that back in the day the quality control at Colt wouldn?t have shipped something like that out. Again, this is all total speculation on my part.

Hopefully it is a legit piece and you can get someone knowledgeable to verify that.
