    Still Original paint ?
    If so which is it........ Meadow Green or Glenmist green ??
    81,537 F1 Pick ups made in 52.

    I don't remember if these 'Options' came in 51 or 52:

    Five Star standard Cab and the deluxe Five Star Extra Cab. The Five Star Extra Cab added extra-sound deafening materials, more foam seat padding, two-tone seat upholstery, both doors get locks and armrests, dome light and passenger side sun shade.
    I believe also offered was a passenger side windshield wiper.
    I do remember now that the steel beds came with a wood sub floor. And for 52 (I believe) a rear bumper was offered along with a right rear tail light.
    Front bumper had the extra supports removed.

    I remember my first wiring job...... putting a steering column turn signal unit on my Fathers 53 Dodge stake bed.... 1-1/2 ton (?)
    My 54 Dodge was a 12 volt positive ground. Burnt my share of regulators out before learning how to do them correctly. Left hand lug nuts on port side.

    Lastly the 57 Ford panel wagon I did to use as a paint truck for work. But it came out so nice I couldn't bare the thought of messing it up hauling sloppy paint tools and sprayers.
    It was like this, nothing chopped or lowered with Mickey Thompsons on Baby moons wearing a Forest green body paint outlined lowers with a grayed silver. Same grayed silver inside. Chrome grille and bumpers..... I'd better stop before I go looking for the old pictures.



    I'll tell you about the Chevy 62 step side another time,
    Enjoy your weekend....
