1958 one ton
Super Appreciative for the information. good to know that this is really a 3/4 ton
the VIN is F35586R33088 information tied to that appreciated. the site i would normally use for a VIN search says No Result probably too old.
thanks again.

VIN has 12 digits, should only have 11 and several of the digits are wrong.
F35 = F350 // 5 = ? // 8 = 1958 // 6 = ?? / R = San Jose CA Assembly Plant // 33088 = 1958 Numerical Sequence of Assembly.
4th digit is a letter, decodes to the engine. 6th digit makes no sense because the assembly plant code (R) belongs there.

You can find the vin on the passenger side chassis on top by front wheel. Title could be misprint or error. I have a 1983 vw with a 1972 title. Neighbor had jeep with wrong year. Lots of funny stuff goes on. My 59 f350 has vin on back of glove box door. .numbers on chassis matches but I could put the f600 glove box door on and confuse everyone.

you are right. the VIN is in error on the title. the CORRECT VIN is F35J8R33088
DATE shows 03 on tag with a max GVW at 9800 lbs looks like the net HP was 126 if i'm reading the plate correctly
fournd it in Glove Box. very cool.
