I checked the 2 210-xx VINs, and they came up as 1962 trucks, one build in MI and the other in Tarrytown, NY. Maybe post some pics and let the experts see if they know?

Better yet, Take a few good, clear pictures of the ID plates, & post them. Those numbers don't jive, for Advance Design Trucks.

1.) VW=1952 6400 (2-ton)

The 0 in the 210 for trucks 2 and 3 should read as the letter O, or maybe even Q.

2.) The prefix is probably QK, as there was no OK. QK is for a 1947 4400.

3.) If this prefix is OW, it's from a 1946 first design 4500 series school bus chassis. However, for an AD truck, the prefix is more likely QW, which would be a 1947 6400.

21 is the plant code for Janesville.
