I don't know if my F450 is a early or late model. How can I tell?

The cutoff date between '99 and '99.5 was supposed to be 12/7/98. Some of the differing features carried over a bit, like the early fender badges.

If it has front of fender small V8 powerstroke badges, that is early. If the aluminum Y pipe in front of turbo that the two intercooler pipes attach to has the round plug with a single heavy gauge wire. It is an intake heater to supplement glow plugs.
Of course the badges could be long gone and the engine could have been changed.
