#1. Is this how the "VIN" plate is supposed to be mounted ( in the photo below)... in the glove box door with screws? I was expecting those fancy VIN rivets...
By the way, the Engine number begins with 98EQH. anyone care to decode it?

#2. All the documentation I've found says that the GVR of 1948-1950 Ford F8's is about 21,500 lbs single and 37,000 combination. The tag on mine says 32000 lb and I dont know if thats single or combo. I was told by the previous owner that my truck was made from the factory as a dump truck, he said they riveted an extra heavy steel plate on the chassis of only the dump trucks. Thats why I dont know if this one could possibly be 32000 max. single.
