I need to figure out what these bed sides are for. I'm going to use them for my 1953 one ton with the nine foot bed, but I haven't seen this sort of latch before.
If anyone knows what they are for, or where I might find information please let me know.

I am currently digging back in to a 1953 3800 (one ton) with a nine foot bed. I've owned it since 1979, and drove it until 1982 (or so). My wife got me involved in restoring it back in 2002, got the body removed and the frame redone, then things came up. Now I am retired and starting again. If anyone is interested I have photos on Imagur ( https://timwhiteblues.imgur.com/ ). I live way back in the woods in the Ozarks on 40 acres at the end of a 2 1/2 mile private road.
