Exclamation F500

<TABLE><TBODY><TR><TD vAlign=top width="100%">Hi checked the information. The club told me it is a 1950 truck that was used to pull house trailers (Trailer Homes?). I found various dates 1960 (owners manuel) and 1965.

The serial number in the glove compartment is F50D0E43094 WB130 Color J Model F500 Date 09E Trans F axle 51 max GVW 15000 RPM 3800 DSO 7179
</TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE>

Hopefully someone will be able to help. I was told that this truck will be parted out and I am trying to find out if it is worth restoring if I buy it. It needs a new radiator and the clutch bled and a new driver's side door window.

Your on it. The F50 is for the F500. D is engine code for 292 V8. 0 is year 1960. E is Mahwah, NJ assembly plant. 43094 is vehicle serial number. Wheel base is in inches - 130". Color J is Monte Carlo Red. Model - you know and gvw. Date code is 09 May, 1960. Trans F is 4 spd Warner T-98A

Only thing I don't have is your axle ratio.
