Term used to describe the "v" shaped "outie" crease that runs along the body of your '67-'72 Ford truck, from the headlight bezel all the way back to the tail lights...

Re: Bump?
My hood hinges are fine, but that latch doesn't go all that high up. 
May your sails stay full, and your knots not slip. Unless a slip knot.

Re: Bump?
Our trucks have a raised area running from front to back on each side where the trim was applied. I guess to make it easier to position the trim? 
Therefore they are referred to as 'bumpsides.' The next generation, the 73-79 models, have a depressed area along the side where the trim was positioned. They are referred to as 'dentsides.' There is a site for those here: http://www.fordification.net/
And remember: There is no such thing as a stupid question!

Re: Bump?
Dont feel bad. We all had to learn the meaning of bump!! bumps are our trucks! Like they explained its cause of the v on the side of the truck thus nickname "bumpside". And flyboy dont think the reason for the bump was to position trim. the reason for trim was to restyle the bump. cause lots dont have the trim. Not trying to be smart so please dont let me make anyone think i think im a know it all. just think its one of fords styling statements!!
