1934?

[1934DodgeTruck]

I just bought a barn find truck that was listed as a 1934.

it has not been registered since 1951 so I assume it has been in the barn since about that time. 
It’s in extremely great shape for its age, there is no rust anywhere excluding surface rust. 
I don’t believe it’s actually a 1934 though and I’m hoping someone can help. 
it has a solid metal roof and non-suicide doors.

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Looks like from

searching the serial number was it was potentially built in 1935. 
 

shouldn't it have come with factory “suicide” doors even as a 1935?

The early or 'first series' of Dodge trucks had suicide door cabs.  This was switched over to the conventional doors in about April of '35.
