I am heading out first thing in the morning to pick up my new 1959 Chevrolet 3800 panel truck. Can anyone out there help with things like "do pickup windshields fit panels and do pickup gas tanks fit panels? Is there a cross reference somewhere on parts? Any help will be appreciated.

The windshields are the same. The fuel tanks are not.

pickup fuel tanks are behind the seat, panel tanks are attached to the passenger side frame rail .... major difference is anything behind the front doors, but generally mechanical parts for a 3800 panel will be the same as any 3800 model .... lots of model specific info in the GM resto kit
