40 Deluxe thank you very much. I moved last year and my books are in storage totes. I will start searching over the weekend.

Remember that numbers stamped in the cowl are not VINs. The number has no significance except that it was used internally at the particular assembly plant and for whatever information that can be gleaned from it. This information varied from plant-to-plant, although this particular number is similar to the number affixed to my '51 truck that was assembled in Somerville. Some plants didn't use these numbers.
