Trying to get title lind up from DMV. If I can figure out how to post a pic of it I will.

The only difference between car and truck were the bolt on items which accounted for the HP differences. Mike B

The "T" indicates Truck. Serial number 5898296 was built in January 1936. The 1936 numbers started with 5500179 and ended with 6784512.

Thanks for the correction, Mike.
I'll look for other sources and correct the information for those years. Most of the on-line sources I got the information from (10+ years ago) are no longer on-line.
