Its the 10th digit for the year and the 8th for the engine and 4th and or 5th for model

Does not help me much. I have a DBAH5005 with a DH478 Ser#F1121R and a V4006 with a 351C Ser#06394E thanx Ron

what area of the truck are you getting the info from.

Ron Wickware · 05-11-2006, 06:38 AM

From the plates on the glove box door. In the case of the tractor, it is the only plate on the vehicle. the truck does have another small stainless steel plate spot welded to the upper door frame that has these characters stamped: V4006 P C 6394E The aluminum plates have all the pertainent data: axle type and ratios, trans type, motor, spring leaves, wheel type, cab #, and ser # and they are secured by the original rivets. thanx.

I puchased these trucks at an estate sale with a bill of sale. The dump truck was listed as a '65 and the coe as a '60. The dump probably is a '65 but the coe can't be a '60 because it has the 478 which did not come out until 1963! So what is it?

mudseeker · 05-14-2006, 05:37 PM

it still could be from 1960. the motor could have blown and had a new one put in.

Hardly. It's a DBAH5005 and has a DH478 DIESEL in it.
