Ok, so I have one "I believe" from Shaffer's1950 that it is a first edition, and one from Mike that it is second edition. Sounds like the chrome grille is the ticket with it being 2nd generation.
So I believe what I have with the 5CK 05 2307 is:
5 = Built in Kansas City
CK = 1946 and/or 3100
05 = May production
2307 = 1,306th off the line.
I also did decipher off the plate with residuals left from the paint (not stamped), CHASSIS N6 or possibly N8.
I plan to get it re-titled in TX with the correct VIN rather than the CA make believe. I'd like confidence in what it means.
This seem right to everyone?
