Hey guys, I've gotten a couple of messages that I was off on the year. To confirm: This truck has a clear 1954 title. This truck is a 1954 with a "front split window." As many of you know, the traditional '54 had a curved front window. Crazy I know. But I have found over time that this gal is quite rare with this front window. I questioned it years ago when I purchased it. You've got to admit, the '53 grill fits right in with the window configuration for an earlier truck. Feel free to message me and I can send you some history pics. Thank you all for you interest. Good luck bidding.
