The Fat Fendered, Classic and Box Style Ford Trucks 1948 - 1960 F1, F100 And Larger F-Series Trucks Carl,It is very possible it is a 1949, the paper work I have says it is a 1949 model year. I also titled it as a 1949 to match the cab cards from 1967 and 1968 and make applying for a title easier. I found them stuck to the back side of the drivers side visor.
With the overlap in years the person I bought it from may not have know either. My plate under the hood on the passengers side that has the vin number also has a spot for the branch. Not much for history, I tried contacting the owner of the truck from 1967 and 1968 with no luck so far.
I do know it was a plow truck for Clamshell Beach Resort in Northern Minnesota for a period of time because it was still painted on the doors in very faded but legible paint. Yes someone wrote BLACK where the number you are looking for is located. I don't want to strip the paint off there at the moment.
If there is something there it might be covered in primer and paint as they are still there and intact. Yours has been flagged as a doesn't fit the norm number. The sequence number in your Vin (192492) would seem to indicate that it is a 1949.
Any chance it was incorrectly registered as a 1950 some time back? Any brief history you could add would be of interest. I noticed the 1972 plate with the 1973 sticker.
Mine came with a 1969 Texas Farm Truck plate wired to the front bumber. I trust you held onto the lic. Plate (like I did) for show and tell.
Also, where was the "Bracnh CGO" located on the truck? Was this stamped into the firewall? Was there a number stamped into the firewall?
And do I read you above correctly when you stated that someone actually wrote "black" on the primer before the hood/truck was painted? Sources: http://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/423340-1948-1960-1949-1950-vin-cut-off-3.html .
1950-1959 Ford Trucks In the 1950s, Ford added trucks to its line, such as a car-truck hybrid. The style of Ford trucks changed dramatically over the course of the decade. As flashy as Ford trucks would get in the late Fifties, those that ushered in the decade could only be described as subdued -- and little-changed from the year before.
Aside from a larger "Big Six" engine for F-6 buyers who didn't want to opt for the V-8, there wasn't much new and exciting for dealers to trumpet. Ford Motor Company celebrated its Golden Anniversary in 1953 by introducing a totally redesigned line of F-Series trucks. The company also took this opportunity to change its model designations, adding "00" to the end of the existing monikers.
Thus the F-1 became the F-100, and so on -- the nomenclature still used today. Added at the top of the line was a new heavy-duty model called the F-900. Instead of calling these trucks the "Bonus Built" models, as they had been from 1948 to1952, Ford now referred to them as the "Economy Truck Line."
Joining the new name was a new hood emblem: a gear cog bisected by a lightning bolt below the Ford script. And for the first time in Ford-truck history, an automatic transmission was offered as an option, though initially only on F-100s. The biggest news in the middle of the decade was the new car-truck hybrid called the Ranchero.
Based on a two-door station-wagon platform, it combined Ford's new-for-'57 car styling with the utility of a pickup by replacing the wagon's covered cargo area with an open bed. In 1959, Ford celebrated a production milestone when its 50-millionth car -- a Galaxie hardtop -- left a company assembly plant. Ford cars outsold those of rival Chevrolet that year, putting a finishing touch on what had been an exciting decade.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
