That plate is one of the factory Ford radio truck options, that is what I am talking about when you are trying to find something that is original. Henry had so many setups it is almost impossible to know.

Ahhhh... I see where it also looks like it would cut out for the correct radio as well.
Might look good I spose.

I was at one time thinking about just using some black or beige thick felt..... fit in the seam between the dash and the radio. It would keep it from rattling also. As long as it was put in uniformly about 1/8" sticking out around the radio where it passes through the dash. But not sure how it would turn out. Could look really nice or really cheezy.
