mailman 07-22-2007 14:17:38 216.51.179.21 26287 Report to Moderator	I've aquired a 47? Ford 1-1/2 ton. The doors are closed and/or locked shut.I tried an long brazing rod between the door and cab to nudge the door handle rearward hoping to pop the latch--no luck. Any suggestions? Also there is a model tag on the firewall but can only read Ford on it. Is there any other locations with serial #'s and model #'s? Appreciate any help. Thanks [Reply]  [Send Email]

It is stamped into the frame. Another location is on the top of the bell housing, but if there has been an engine change that number is no longer valid.   [Reply]  [Send Email]

I know the window glass has a metal enclosure on the sides and the top of the glass.   [Reply]  [No Email]
