My '54 had one with a cover and spare fuse. I don't know why the '51 would be different, but it might be. It would obviously work on either one, though.

Yes they did, All fuse boxes 1950-1955 1st (US anyway)had a black plastic cover with clips to hold on spare fuse for either your brake or tail light circut.

Here is a page from the 1948-52 Shop Manual which shows the fuse box. I think the style of the box changed in 1953 (it was certainly a different style in 1954).

My 53 3/4 ton has the two fuse box as BruceO describes with plastic cover as Oltrucks describes. I can take a picture if you want me to.

Both styles of boxes had a cover (as described by OLTrucks).

OK, thanks for comments guys. I agree that I've seen covers for my 2 fuse block as well. Anyone know where I can get one?
