I've got a '57 3800 that I want to begin restoring this summer. I got a couple of '57 hood rockets off Ebay and I was wondering if those types of options were available for 1 ton trucks. It's not going to be a show truck but I don't want to add something that will look out of place. Any insight will be appreciated.

any option for 57 was available for any model the buyer wanted it on .... can't imagine too many 1T truck buyers asked for fancy trim, but they'd get it if they wanted .... see the assembly manual for RPO listings and see the Accessory manual linked below
