Are tri-five Chev truck front fenders all the same? ...any differences?...I'm talkin 1/2 tons. thanks.
Hey Sam, 55-56 are the same but 57's have a small indentation on each side of the inner grille opening so that the 57 grille will fit properly. I've had quite a few NOS fenders over the years and they all had the 57 indentation in them. I just filled them in when used on a 55-56. Max
YES and NO! I'm getting too technical here, but, there were TWO 55 Chevrolet trucks; the first series 55 looked like a 54, the second series is what most people are more familiar with. Same thing happened with the 70 Camaro. My younger brother had a 56 with the wrap around rear window and the LOOOONG box ( I guess there were THREE bed lenths back then); it had a 283 with one of my Muncie M-21s' in it. Headers and dual eaxhaust. It had the longest bullet style gl***packs on it I've ever seen, and that truck had the coolest sound. All that's left of it now is the 4-speed he gave back to me, the rest got crushed. Butch/56sedandelivery.
Tri five usually implies the task force series. When I got my 55 second series upholstered, my upholsterer asked if it was the body style that looked like a 56 or the ugly one. I kind of chuckled. Dave
