You would be surprised just how many Custom Trucks were around in the late 50s and 60s - Most were Ford and Chevys from the mid 50's

Exactly, and not just trucks. Peeps were customizing 1949 Merc Coupes from day one, turning them (and 1950/51's) into lead sleds.
The rocker panels were only a few inches from the pavement. Take a look-see in 1950's issues of Hot Rod, Rod & Custom, Speed Age and etc.
