There is one of these laying close by ..
It is rough as a cob though , and its a ugly duckling ..
Think I could make one look good ( the one local is a style side and is a short box )
This is just one I seen on the auction site

Its a 58
I think I could make it look cool, I heard the same thing when I started on my other truck
"Those are ugly" -- "farm truck" were just two of the comments I got all the time , well now everyone likes them

I actually like these but feel the cabs could do with a bit of a section. The problem I see with that though is the body line and headlight areas. It wouldnt be a simple process to get a good 4"-6" section outta the middle of it. ![](/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/Twocents.gif)
Otherwise I like this front end even better than the earlier 48 to 55ish nose. I think there is more style here. Plus I think one of these could easily accept a 61 Chrysler grille and headlight treatment.
