This is a great picture of a brand new truck. Besides the blackwall tires, notice the hubcaps, painted not stainless.
Also, is the gas cap black? I have seen in literature that all gas caps are black from F-100 up to F-700 and up. My truck had a rusty chrome cap when I bought it from my grandfather and he bought it new. Don't know if it was a replacement cap or not. I have seen this picture before and noticed the black cap. I have not seen any other pics of new trucks that you could see for sure if they had black gas caps.
Odd that it has the Custom Cabs extra trim but no emblem or lock on the door, and the wheels are body colored instead of Snowshoe White.. could this be a pre 55 Ford archives photo and not what they actually made for 55? Mark
