3200 = 1/2 ton long box | | | | | Joined: Nov 2000 Posts: 1,966 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Nov 2000 Posts: 1,966 | Larry Maybe you know already but 55-2nd series was first 3200's. Your link did not work, but I went to the home page and saw a gray 55.2 or 56 Chevy step-side. Is that the truck? Looks like a short-box (3100). Nice truck!

Bill Actually 1955-1956 long beds are 89 inches, while 1957-1959 longbeds are 98 inches. The wheelbase is the same for 1955-1959 longbeds. The extra length on the 57-59 longbeds is behind the rear fenders. | | |
