Check the frame VIN too. You have a high hump cab, you should probably (not 100%) have a low hump in a 2wd with auto trans. Of course someone could have cut the low hump out and bolted a high hump in place. It's very possible someone swapped that cab at one time. You may have a shortened frame, or a frame that isn't original to the cab. Not that it's a big deal, a lot of parts have been swapped around after 40 years.
The doors are 71 or earlier. Grille is 71 or 72. Mirror is on the windshield which should be 72. Are there holes in the top of the cab from a rearview mirror bracket?
