Have you tried these folks- http://antiquedodgeparts.com/bodyparts.htmThey don't list a lock assembly for the 58 but they might know if the rotor is the same as the 55-56. |

Getting older but no wiser! Just using bigger hammers.
The answer to most problems, fire and lots of it.

A stepside pickup would look tough and be fairly easy to do. Easier would be a stake side, or drop side flat bed. The Dodge "sweptside" always looks odd to me and would be hardest to get right.

not keen on ,sweptside or ,,styleside, bodies, i was thinking about a stepside a bit along the lines of ,EMILY,S, but the proportions just dont seam to work out ,  so i think it,ll be a stake bed designed by me like no other one ever built |

bit more done ,, lift pump stripped rebuilt/refitted and working (some body had fitted a ,leccy, one and bypassed it ) running boards/steps removed (dont yet know if i,ll refit or reuse them) exhaust downpipe refurbed and new flexi, welded on ready for the rest of the system inner wing liners removed all/every bolt was a bar-steward == took for ever complete with wrapped knuckles and workin on her was hard today as weve had gale force winds blowing dust and cr#p about and acctually rocking the truck whilst up on axle stands . so a bit of slow progress but progress none the less,, |
