Same truck, different back body.
About half VC production was VC1 Command and VC5 open cab pickup, Norm, and those are the ones you see in all the photos.
It's a safe bet they weren't the VC2 Radio version because so few of them were made, versus a whole pile of VC1. I think I only have one VC2 radio truck survivor on the list.
Very few Vc5's survive as original too, as sensible US farmers dropped hard cabs on five minutes after they bought them. If you want to find out if a new VC purchase started off as a VC 3 closed cab or a VC5 open cab just look at the pickup bed. Like the half ton WC's, the VC open cab pickups all had transverse seats, while the closed cabs all had longitudinal seats.
