Thank-you FOX for the encouraging words. I am sure it is a cliche', but if I had known how much work it was going to be...
Thanks Dusty, for the extra info on trying to determine the year. I think you are right, it is a '40. I searched up what I could on VIN decoding info, as the vehicle is Canadian the info from back then is a little spotty. From what I did find, I figured it to be a '39. Thanks, it will be good to have it registered correctly.
