Correct Data Tag/Plate Information

My truck is missing the firewall and glovebox data plate. I have purchased replacements and would like to have these stamped with my truck's information, in the correct format. This is my question, what is the correct format? I have tried a google images search and also searching FTE, however I'm still unsure, I've seen quite a few different examples:

On the firewall patent plate the formats I have seen are:
*98RC-*123456* or 98RC-123456

On the Glovebox plate under Engine Number section:
F198RC-123456 or 98RC-123456-

Also does anyone know the correct model number a 1950 Ford F1 should have on the glovebox plate?

Any help on this would be greatly appreciated, Thanks

Richard

Hey Richard,
Welcome Aboard! Nice looking truck! Do you have it running?

I wish I could help with your question but I only have a glove box
tag & it appears to have been added later by a previous owner.
