i second this.  my B122 has a 114" wheelbase also, which is the shortest you
could get in those years.  in 1961 the shortest wheelbase for fullsized
trucks became 115".  the Brownell and Ertel "International Truck Color
History" indicates that the 900-series trucks were 107" wheelbase narrowbox
trucks (short widebox became available in 1965 for the D-900), and didn't
get a 115" wheelbase untill the 908B in 1967, which is when it also dumped
the 4-cylinder for an SV.  additionally, the Crismon book also indicates
that the 900-series trucks were 107" wheelbase.

according to the Crismon book, the shortest wheelbase offered for any truck
in 1968 was 119".
