Classic style bed rails - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Does anybody still use the old boat style chrome or stainless tie down rails on the top of the bed sides? Please post pictures if you have them. Also please advise if any suppliers still sell these. I think the early models used 7/8" or 1" tubing. The new large tubing styles look like grab handles that belong in a shower (imo).

Yes, exactly like his. I think he's left the forums, so I was hoping someone else might know if something similar is available anywhere in the aftermarket.
