Drdock,

Where did you find information for the DGA preface on the engine serial number (in the "VIN" posted above by kskarma, DGA591119)? The various 1942 and 1946 codes confuse me (I am often confused).

Here is the 1946 Specifications Manual (dated 5-1-1946). The 1.5 and 2 ton tires/wheels could be the same (where does kskarma give information on the 2-ton springs you refer to?).


kskarma,

What is your block casting code and block casting date? Here are locations for 216 and low-pressure 235 codes.

Is there an ID plate on your truck?

Here are prices for 1946 1.5 and 2 ton trucks ("conventional" trucks, not COE trucks).

The date for that price list is dated 9-16-46; and, note the handwritten price increases in the pages (I do not know the date of the hand-writing).
