The "C" means "Commercial", which in "Ford"-speak means a pick-up or sedan delivery of less than 1-Ton. The "1420533" indicates a fairly early build in the 1947 production run. So....likely a 3/4-Ton from your description. DD
Thanks Coop, sounds like good info and you answered my questions. but you got me worried a bit. It has been registered for the last 30 years as a 46. I don't think the RMV cops will find out so mum's the word.
Thanks again
John
