Someone asked what's that on the side of Bill's '59 Stepside.

Any ideas? (That's why I included that picture)

It's an OEM Cab ventalator - 'sans A/C' for the cab. I don't now the correct name but I know the purpose. I wish I had a pile, as they sell for a pretty penny.

Jake,

Thanks. At first I wondered if there was something wrong with the photo.

So, it's kinda like having a good old vent? Neat. I sure miss those in the cars these days. Having the window up, but still getting air in.

Of course, I don't have that problem. I've got an old Sebring convertible. Get lots of AIR! Me and the dog love it smile

Excellent, that Fleetside is exactly like my truck, down to the paint scheme and bedside trim.

Now, if only my front/rear bumpers were chromed, and I had the front bumper guards, and so on smile

Something to aspire to!

I spotted that right off - grew up w/ those things!

called a Thermador Auto Cooler - same as the swamp coolers folks who can't afford AC have on their homes - there\'s 2 on ebay right now if anyone wants one - spendy!

That's too funny. I wondered if Modelman was sorta kidding.

And you know, M. Rhoten, sometimes when I'm doing these gallery additions ... I think "I've seen this truck before" or "have I already done this one."

It's AMAZING how many look so similar.

Drives me nuts!
