Found the casting number for the engine which is 3764476 which makes it a 58-62 235. The other ID on the plate I found is F6I2J. The only "F" I'm seeing here http://www.americanclassic.com/paint.htm?p1=engines
is 8 cyl. What am I reading wrong?

The truck is a 59 3200 Fleetside.

you're not looking at the right thing, first letter is plant [F is for Flint], last is the application - J is the relevent letter, and it's listed as 1/2T 6cyl 145hp manual trans - the series 1100 and 1200 aren't trucks
