My 57 3100 has the wraparound. I thought this was the only back window option available. Shows what I get for thinking as there is also a square window (saw one go across Barrett Jackson), and a 3 piece from what I have been told.... so of course I should not just take someone's word for it.

Any one know of what window configs were available in the 3100 series, and which would be most to least common?

In the 55 2nd series up i only know of 2 back windows. The small back window and the wrap around window. The onlt 3 piece window i know of was in the 1st series back pickups.

thats what I was thinking - but for some reason I wasn't sure of the small. But which one is the fewer? The only 57s I have paid attention to were wraps so I am thinking the small ones are the rares.

I'm thinking it's the other way around. Small windows are more common. Big rear windows are more desirable..

Here's a relevant discussion over at the H.A.M.B. on the subject.

There is a 3 window version offered, at least for 1957.
It was available only in the really big trucks - at least bigger than 1 ton ones.
I have seen a photo of 2 of them.
I have a short bed stepside and would love to find a 3 window to switch my truck to!

If you could get them in the standard cab that would be great. I just bought a 2 1/2 ton grain truck and the cab is the same as the pickups.
I've never seen a 3 piece on a 57 truck,but that doesn't mean they don't exist.
Would like to see pics of one.
And yes,there are many more small window cabs than big-KB
