Hi. I am trying to decode my Australian right hand drive 1956 F100. The number stamped on the top of the frame rail just forward of the cabin firewall is ARA1471F. Any help or insight would be greatly appreciated. The number may be AFA1471F...........the lettering is only just legible.

Here's a thead that has Canadian serial number info, which seems to be the basis of Aussie numbers: https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/1...l#post14691274
