I have a question the last numerical part shows what number the truck is from the assembly plant, starting with 100001, (using 1957 salesman manual), is that all trucks from the model year or all of the taskforce series or what?
3B = 3200 series
59 = model year
K = Kansas City assembly plant
Unit number is the next group of numbers see above.
The unit number is a consecutive number that includes ALL series of cars and trucks made at that plant.
If you look at the unit numbers on Goldfish's serial number plate you can see the they were pre stamped and then during assembly they stamped the Series, Year and Plant (stamping is not as uniform and straight). So Goldfish's truck is the 43,314th vehicle out of plant K in the 1959 model year.
