Check out, 75 Years Of Chevrolet, by George H. Dammann. Page 164, last paragraph, right hand column. Tells about the fenders. Reads as follows, "As could be expected, the military, & war-related industries were gobbling up the truck line just about as fast as Chevrolet could turn them out. The only changes made to the 1942 truck line, except for taking away all chrome articles, was the cutting away of the front fender line to conserve metal, and doing away with the floor mat, to conserve rubber".
