I don't know what's right. The 1957 W500 is listed as a production of 82. I don't know where that number came from as I've never seen anything with production numbers over 1 ton in 1957. There were both V8 and 6cyl W500s in 1957. Is that both or just one? I've got multiple serial numbers from actual trucks that are 400 higher than the listed starting serial number so 82 is too low or the starting serial number is wrong.
I'm working on it, but collecting data is hard when the trucks are so hard to find.
Someday I hope to find more factory production info, but information like that is hard to find.
