Like anything it is in the eye of the beholder
Like lowered or lifted - some like some hate
20 inch wheels - some like some hate
rat rod - some like some hate
shop truck unpainted -some like some hate
chopped trucks -some like some hate
restore verses modified -some like some hate
I never belittle anyone one what they prefer If I did that would open everything up on my trucks
With that being said this was a very rare option found on very few trucks. The original mounting seemed to hold them on just fine but not sure how many were going 80 mph in 1959 . Hah
