figure it's a 54 by the grille. Flathead V8 cab,engine, trans & frame only pretty rough but decent parts truck if nothing else. M a newb so not sure if i can post pics yet. Does the under hood plate tell us anything?
My 52 Mercury truck has a similar plate in that same location, as I'm sure most other Canadian trucks of the era do. Several years ago I sent an email to the Ford of Canada historical department looking for information. They couldn't tell me anything about the data on the plate, but could only decode the vin for me. It would be great if we could put together some kind of database with the info, and perhaps we could make some heads or tails out of it. But for now, the answers may be lost to time.
