I have a '57 PW (unrestored) that appears to have the same bed as this PW at the Fitchburg swap meet. Notice that the PW in this picture does not have a spare tire carrier.
My '57 does not have a spare tire carrier either. In fact there are no holes drilled out for the mounting of the spare tire carrier. So, the question is . . . why?
Did the bed in later years come not equipped with a spare tire carrier, was the tire mounted elsewhere, or was this an optional accessory for the truck?
