styleside, not fleetside

just want to point something out that I noticed. On one of the 1962 Ford advertisements i have posted a link to the picture below, it's a little hard to see in the scan, but it definitely calls the 62 unibody a styleside pick-up. just curious as I thought Ford nomenclature fleetside?

Heck I can't read the fine print on the brochure anyway.
I was expecting Ford to call the uni's bed body style; something unique all its own.

oh ok! I thought the letters went hand in hand.

Flareside with fleetside

styleside with stepside

makes sense how it could be mistaken.
