I've been looking for an Owner's Manual for my '57 GMC for 
years.  No luck yet.  I'd settle for a photocopy.  I'm 
just looking for the information, not necessarily an 
original.

The jack that Jim has may be correct for the '58-9, but I 
believe it in not the correct one for the '57 and earlier.
I'll check my Master Parts Book tonight and see if the 
jack is listed.

Jeff,

You must really believe in Santa Claus. :>)  I think you just asked for the 
3 rarest items for a 58-59 GMC.  I was never able to find an owner's manual 
for my 58 but I was able to get a colored photocopy of all pages and made 
one up for myself.  I do have 2 full sets of parking lite assemblies (one 
for use and one for just in case), it took quite a while to get this all 
assembled.  One thing to be aware of is that the lens are also a left and 
right as are the rest of the pieces.  Do you have a picture of the correct 
jack.  I have a jack that I was told was correct and also was told is not 
correct.  A picture of it is located at 
http://www.angelfire.com/mi2/jrvvehicles/gmcMisc.html.  Let me know whether 
or not you think it is correct.

Good luck,

Jim V.
