Kevin,

Thanks, I forgot I had that. It answered all but question 2. When they show the bed measurements it is the bed itself but there are mounts, spacers, and such that I don't have. The first diagram shows the frame to the cab top where as the bed dimensions are from the bed floor. I can't seem to derive the frame to bed floor or bed floor to top of cab. The frame diagram shows a 4" kick up on the 1/2 ton frame so I would guess the frame to bottom of bed frame would have to be a least 4" plus the bed frame (1.5" ?) at the cab. I think I can figure out the fender as they have the axle center point to cab and back.

So hopefully someone has a '41 or '46 and wouldn't mind taking a quick measurement of the front of the bed center to the bottom of the belt line. I could probably guess and get within a few inches but I would love to make it look as close as I can.

Thanks again!
