The 2 heaters shown. The one with the strips looks greenish grey and the strips look orange. This one also has a rod to switch the defrost ducts open or closed.

The other which i think is later up to 1947 shows no color just surface rust. No strips and a cable operated for the defrost ducts.

Both mount the same and are identified truck by the drain plug in the heater core.

Ford used same colors and stripe pattern on heaters in the truck as that of the passenger car. All the 1941 heaters used a short rod to pull the defrost control flapper valve.
