Another originality question. Did the 59 Task Force trucks have a pair of
brace rods running from the firewall over the engine to the top of the
radiator support cross member? Would the engine type (V8 or 6) effect this?
Thanks

I've only seen those on the GMC's, not sure of the exact years, but I'd bet
they were original. GMC was always touted as a heavier duty truck, and cost a
few bucks more at the time. If I remember it right, they (GMC's) also had a
heavier sprung suspension.
