I don't think my original message was clear.
Door tag has VIN 2381689920, and then AFTER that
there is the number 90524617. I don't know what the 90524617 stands for. As I said in the original message, the truck was originally purchased by the Navy Seebees. It is olive drab, not blue. Painted on the doors is "US Navy" followed by a number. Below that is a Seabee symbol - a bunch 1/2" tear-drop shaped symbols arranged in a cirular pattern about 10" in diameter, with about a 4" bumblebee inside with the word "Seabees" underneath the bumblebee. Kind of cool. Above the rear-view mirror is a brass plate with date of delivery to Navy, GVW, etc.
(doors are pull-handle)
