Thanks for the replies!

The serial/vin number on the tag on the hinge side of the drivers door is: 353 24 P 15821

There are no letters before the 353.

I tried the "Vin Buster" page and the results from my serial number tell me the truck was made in 1963. I don't think that's correct. But I put a url to an image in my photobucket account of a page I think says more, but I'm still not 100% sure it's correct. I circled my serial number at the bottom. I still can't get any links to work in this forum yet, but you can cut and past the url in a browser and see why I think the truck was made in 1953.

Thanks again for the replies! Take care.
