Default Progress part 2

The cab frame came up well. No rust problems underneath the floor areas, but one rust hole on mates side arch. MIG should take care of that tomorrow.

When inspecting the frame, I found a number on the very top of mates side where the window frame goes, but about 7-8 inches in from the end. What is this number? Is it a part number, or a serial number of the truck? It's still as clear as day after 70 years of muck blown off. There is an oval shaped hole punched through near the number and then welded up, with a much smaller hole drilled through again. Bloody strange!

The steering column bracket that bolts to the frame has me puzzled. I know the two holes on upper part attach to the frame, but what do the other two bolts attach to (the ones with the bolts still in them)?
