Here is a photo of my 1951 1/2-ton.
http://pic40.picturetrail.com/VOL284/1946755/9706179/138155662.jpg It was built in August of 1951. Notice the painted (not stainless grill) on the dash. The wiper knob on top of the dash is plastic, not chrome. However, the window crank knobs on the door are chrome. These also became plastic in 1952. I don't believe that it originally came with a rear bumper and the front was gone when I bought it. It was a deluxe cab with the corner windows and a pinstripe around the cab. The grill was painted cream color.
