Brian,
I think that code is from a 1955 Sedan Delivery engine:
0467249 = serial number
F = Built in Flint, MI
55 = Year built (1955)
Y = 1500 series (Sedan Delivery) Automatic
My decoding might be wrong (1955 is correct but Sedan Delivery seems odd). Maybe someone else has better documentation.
What is the full code on the VID plate (on the driver's door frame)? I saw the photo and I think it had a H54F (1954, 3100, built in Flint).
Does the truck have an open driveshaft or an enclosed driveshaft? Can you post a picture of the shift-indicator (under the steering wheel on the steering column).
The 3100 emblems on the side of the hood are 1953/54 (the two chrome strips/oraments are not from 1954 - they look like two of the 47-53 truck hood ornaments).
