Has anyone seen this before, must be a late 29

It's an early 1930 used on commercial and trucks until the body change in mid 1930.

It may also have the 1930 pattern steering wheel/headlight switch/steering column.

It probably has Budd 5 hole wheels and the front spring is 2-1/2 wide. (Earlier were 12 or 18 leaf car width front springs.)

Its like Ford made just enough changes to use up the Squarish Budd Bodies before the swap over to the Ford produced "cab."

It is an Early 1930, not a Late 29. All 1929 style sheet metal with all the new 1930 Suspension, Brakes, Wheels, ETC.
