I've got the same deal on mine. You can put a TON of stuff in that cargo area.
I saw a really nice '65 a few weeks ago that had all the original seats, with a tail gate, and the third seat was right next to the tail gate. I bet you could only get grocery sacks in there between the seat and the gate.
I would like to have a short middle seat though... We've hauled Boy Wonder and his merry band of delinquents a couple times, and that third seat would be nice. 12-14 year old boys strapped 6 wide in the middle seat doesn't work well.
