I can go measure the rear end I have but 60 inches is what it is. Inside the box is still 50 inches and the bedsides were the same and the Cameo fenders were set on over the bedsides. Reading this confirms that along with the "rare" taillights actually being 54 Car taillights. https://www.springdalechevy.com/blog...55-1959-642340
The Cameo is actually an inch wider over the wide spot of the fenders.
