I will have to take another look mybe I missed it. I
was out in the rain with a flash light trying to look
up under the dash at the fire wall. This Truck looks
to be in pretty unmolested original condition other
than some possible Fire Department Mods. The Wood
steering wheel looks to be in real nice shape and the
mileage is showing just over 9k. With your serial
number being a Jan 43 then mine must be a possible
Dec. 42 unit. Dan
