Welcome to the site, Terry!
S series panels are few and far between, partly because they were only built for a year and a half. Do you have the chrome headlight rings? They're kind of hard to find.

Wow, nice truck, reminds me of my Dad. He was a plumber and had one of these for a few years. Yours is in remarkable condition.

From the cowl back it should be the same.

Re: 56 S-100 Panel truck

panel body is identical from firewall back from 1950-1956,

except when they went from L style doors with swing down door handle to R and S style door with push button handle,

window is taller in newer doors, but older doors bolt right up,

Return to L, R and S
