Greetings everyone. I read this thread with interest, because I've just put down a deposit on a '59 32 Fleetside myself. All I have to figure out is whether to pay to transport it to where I am, or to rent a tow vehicle and trailer and go get it!

For my money the looks of the Fleetside bed, especially the longbed, are hard to beat. I do like the front end of the earlier TF trucks, but the 58-59 grill is growing on me, and I love the quad headlights.

I have a whole bunch of books, and have a whole bunch of manuals ordered, but I do have a question out of the gate. Some of the 58-59 trucks have some fancy brightwork trim on the bedside, on the long style-bump (?) that leads to the taillight. Was that part of a particular trim package?
