Hey All,

I am trying to figure out what year cab is on my truck. I have researched and read many post on the subject and still run into conflicting statements.

What I have is: Frame numbers stating 1955. It is a 2nd series. It has electric wipers and factory turn signals. (I thought both of these was later-58,59- factory items.) The gas peddle is a bracket on the floorboard and a bracket on bottom of peddle joined with a pivot pin and cotter pin. The door post data plate has the 3 silver boxes at bottom for trim # paint # and(?). According to Classic Parts catalog that data plate is for 58-59. The cab also has the chrome trim around the back of the cab and side windows. The front windshield rubber has the slit for the chrome windshield trim.

What do I have? A bunch of installed options? Items added at one time or another? Is there a absolute way to identify the year of the cab?

Thanks
