Looked at this again and see my errors.
C90 = '54-'56 C900 cab forward, the predecessor to the tilt cab C series
K = 317 CID Lincoln Y-block V8
4 = 1954 model year
H = Detroit Truck Plant
27000 = serial number
116 = 116 inch wheel base
151 3600 = 151 certified net HP @ 3600 RPM
5DIR = 5 speed direct transmission. Make and model or other id will be cast into the case or maybe on a tag attached.
717-977 = two speed axle ratios
R = looks like color code for vermilion
25 = might be Richmond district code
Unsure on the rest. Sorry for the confusion.
