Nothing screamed "plain jane city or fleet purchase utility beater" quite like a longbed stepside did back in the day. We have some old 8mm family movies of my Grandfather's '65 or '66 lb step F series pulling out of the driveway.

I'm finding out how hard it is to keep a truck nice. I got the truck back from paint on valentines day, and I've already found two spots missing paint that I have no idea how the scratches got there.... Kinda irritates me

I don't think so. I believe the farmer I bought it off of put them on. I didn't think it hurt the look of the truck, so kept them.

I have to admit, its unique, I like it too now. The majority of those 8 fters I saw from the '60s-'70s seemed like were owned by the water works or the City somehow, they got used hard, not many survived.
