Almost looks like it belongs on the stepside, but don't like the fleetside.

I grew up in the age when fender skirts were in style. Sorry, but I didn't like them then, and I still don't like them, especially on a truck.

Looking at the different photos made me a believer, but perfer to see the skirt on the lowered trucks

I was of the same mindset when I was young. We had a 1952 Oldsmobile Super 88 2 door hardtop with skirts. Loved the car, hated the skirts. Every week I’d wash the car and remove the skirts and leave them off. My dad would yell at me until I put them back on. One day I was washing the skirts in the driveway, got distracted and took off to do something else. Without looking, he backed the car into the garage and ran over both of them. They got mangled like candy bar wrappers! I received generous punishment and verbal abuse for having done it on purpose (which I vigorously denied). It was worth it since I never had to put them back on after that!

Fender Skirt Depot:
One fits- Pick-Up Stepside Skirt, Flared Bottom.
Second fits- Pick-Up Fleetside, Short Bed Skirt.
Third fits- Pick-Up Fleetside Long Bed Skirt, Flared Bottom.

Here's another thread discussing the different leghths of the skirts.
