Anyone Have Any Pics Of 58-59 Fleetside Bed Meeting Cab?

I am looking to see if anyone happens to have some pictures of where a fleetside bed meets up to the back of the cab on a 58-59 Chevy/GMC. I'm just wondering what it looks like and the distance between the bed and cab. Trying to place the bed on my Alter-K-Tion project and can't quite figure out what looks the best. Thanks

C'mon Poncho, Let's see the rest of the truck. I like the color for the Fleetside. The photo in your public profile is too far away and too out of focus. Let's see some Fleetside porn!

Do you happen to have a side pic where they meet? Also, do you know what the gap size is in the center of the bed to the center of the cab? 2"?

Thank you

I think that truck would look killer with the trim for the bullets. I may actually have a set of trim if you were interested. But that's definitely one clean truck.

There is 1 1/2" gap between the cab and box.

Yeah I have seen trucks with that trim. How is the condition of that trim that you have? Send a PM if you want.

Nice, I love that color, mine was originally that color too. You might think about a subtle pinstripe where the white meets the blue, maybe a few shades darker than the blue?
