Rear bumpers were an option in 53-- many working trucks had ones like this added since they are much more protective than the dealer options. Shell is rare and nice to have. 4 speed (with a "granny" first gear was an available option. All the above is good advice - A word of caution, spotlights are now illegal in many states- if you keep them, check and, if illegal , you can disable them and perhaps avoid a hassle if you get stopped.
Good luck
