50? ford truck

You guys with the trucks with no title or registratoin think you have problems, I dont even have a vin plate, Im not sure of the year,the truck has diferent parts from other years.Im told its a 59.So to get it registerd is going to be hard.But when I finish building it Ill have a great rust proof truck that I cant drive.The reason it will be rust proof is cause I have a sandblasting buisness and I us a thing called Rust Block Sealant,its not like all these rust preventotive things that clame to stop rust but are a joke. Iv sand blasted a trucks panels ,put on the block and no paint,you can see the bare metal throuh the block,its that thin.The truck has been out in the weather for 6 months now,With no rust coming back. This stufe is great. Ill post some photos of my 59 when I get the film developed. I thought of leaving the truck bare metal,it would be a real conversation piece.Larry

Hi Larry,
The Vin number is also stamped on the frame. If you can find it, post it here and I'll tell you the model year for sure.

I found the vin on the frame after sandblasting it, I looked in the computer and it said the frame is a 55.This is the frame # 4813530ZL10264B Larry

Hi,
From the serial number you posted, it looks as though your truck may be Canadian. Unfortunately, I can't de-code them at this time. The first character of a U.S. vin # would be an "F".
Someone (I beleieve it may have been "mercuryblues") had posted a link to some great Canadian Mercury and Ford info on here not to long ago. I'll see if I can find it and hopefully they will have some de-coding info there.
