You guys work fast here!I'm stoked to see the TopHands have there own forum along with the other rare truck forums that have been recently added! 8-) I've been told by some members(you know who you are ;) ) that there was somewhere between 200-300 Tophand's built.I was wondering did this include the Tophand Ramchargers as well?Also I would guess that the build dates could vary alot on these trucks since they had to be special ordered by the customer right?Were they only available new through regional dealers or was they offered coast to coast?

I had one very simular to yours. It was a 360 2wd top hand short bed fleet side. I have a picture of it from an ebay ad. I'll try to find it. The thing was really solid and had a big dent in the passenger side fender. It was still wearing all of the original paint, rims, and stripes. Was a really neat truck and wish we would of kept it.

if I recall correctly it was in tennessee...but don't remember where though...picture was from an ebay auction about 3 years ago when they were trying to sell some parts off of it, no takers on the parts then....I asked about the roof rack, and they said no, goes with the roof, even though the rear gate was gone....
