History

SH-105 was first commissioned on January 26, 1955. At this time, the highway began at SH-40 (present-day US-177) west of Tryon, and ended at SH-18 south of Agra. The highway was extended west to its current western terminus east of Guthrie on June 4, 1955. The highway has no further alterations to its extent since. SH-105 was originally gravel-surfaced. By 1959, the eastern half of the highway had been paved. The western half of the highway was not shown on the official state map at all until the 1981 edition, which showed it as paved.
