I also found the letters "AIR" on the inside of the passenger fender, which told everyone on the assembly line, who needed to know, that this truck was going to have Air Conditioning. At this point I decided I "might-as-well" ( you're getting to understand the title of this thread more now, aren't you !!! ) take the radiator out and have it re-cored since it seemed to be leaking a little.
Welcome from Iowa. Very cool! Nice truck man! Reminds me of mine. I've got some of those grease pencil markings too! Very interesting you learned where they came from - up til now, I thought they were parts from a junk yard. lol I'm considering putting steel wheels, white walls and those original wheel covers on too.
