Looking at different AD trucks I've noticed that the chain hooks for the tailgate go either way depending on how you like them. I have mine (Red truck) latched in from the outside. The green truck is from an online video of a 1949 barn find with the hooks latched in from the outside in. When these ole AD trucks rolled of the assembly line how where the chain hooks installed?
