Interesting '59 GMC Pickup, "Fleet Option"

Odd truck - odd to see these with single headlamps but evidently this was the low-end work truck content. I must say, these look so much better with the design intent quad headlamps. Grille looks like something I would have made in shop class! It's amazing how far GMC went to cut costs out of this low-frills trim level.

One of those resides a few miles from my house. I always assumed the headlight conversion and grill were home-made! Good to know the truth now!

Very cool, never seen one before

Learn something every day! Was the bumper part of that deal??
