There is no doubt that the radio speaker horizontal trim and glove-box door were painted from mid/late-1951 through 1953 (1952-1953 model years), due to metal needs for the Korean War (as were hub caps, bumpers, and grille.
Those components might have been chromed or stainless steel in earlier Advance-Design trucks? Maybe the same for the ash tray?
It would be nice to hear from 1947-1951 truck owners. | | |
