I'm wanting to find out if anyone can tell me the track width of the 59 short bed or atleaset how to measure it, im looking for a different frame to set her on, the original frame is a little tweaked due to the engine that my brother had in it, he had a 409 BBC stuffed in it and even with the frame being boxed it still tweaked it some.
Also can someone tell me what all of the dash knobs are and what order they are in, my brother did a custom dash and all the knobs were replaced with toggle switches I have 11 toggles I know there arent 11 knobs but any help would be appreciated.

I think it's safe to say that the left air and right air won't be on my toggle switches and i know the heater control knob is still original its under the dash. I'm narrowing it down!!!

Hello I retired from the US Army Sep 2011. I have a cd player in the glove box so the ammo can is my glove box now. There is a few more Army touches. Here's more pictures of it. http://www.flickr.com/photos/28697582@N04/
