53-56 owners: where is your glove box "Engine Oil sticker?"
A few weeks weeks ago I noticed the Engine Oil specs sticker on my '54 glove box door is in a different location than the oil sticker on my now departed 55. Where are your Engine Oil stickers on your truck's glove box? Tell us with pics and year.

And this is not a big deal. It's been a long cold boring winter so far.

I didn't know 52' them. Did 51's? Sorry about leaving you in the cold. But the 29° we have now seems like a heatwave!
So 56 trucks didn't have them....

I just don't recall seeing any on mine, I have some spare glove box doors, I'll have to check to see if there is anything on them..

51 trucks I think had them too. Maybe when they changed the data plates mid year? I'm not certain. Now I will have to find out. The 52 trucks had them on the right hand side of the door , to the right of the data plate from ones I've seen. Those data plates had 4 screw holes but they were just shoved under the hinges and screwed down using only two screws at the bottom holes.

Just happened to look for mine on my 56 and it's in the same location as yours Steve. Sorry I didnt take a picture of it.
Dont know why some 56's have them and others don't. Might of been where they were built. Mine was built in Longbeach CA.
