The '57 - '60's are sometimes referred to as "refrigerators" because of their boxy look. (relative to Bonus Builts and Mid-fifties, anyway)

I like the tall/skinny stock look too, nothing is more common than massive super-swampers.

yep sir darn nice 4x4 . i too must add to the want list especially since i'm wanting another one to go play in the mud with . my last 4x4 was an 83 and had 33 x 12 x 15 swampers on it for quite awhile till i saw an older 4x4 of another make with the tall skinnys on it . hasve a neighbour who was employed at the national gaurd who arranged for me to buy a set of the tall's they use on there vehicles ,but were 16's . so to make a long story short , new rims tall skinny's and the truck looked much better and there was no noticeable difference in it's performance off road .

I've been looking for one of these off and on for several years. I ended up getting a '66 Bronco first, then somebody used it for target practice, then I ended up amassing several 70's trucks, and now the '48 (and others). Haven't found my '59/'60 4x4 yet. A local in Ely, MN back in the early '90's had one just like that one in the pic, same color, tires, and all. I was hooked from then on. Though the local's was a bit more faded. That one sure is a beaut.
