stonecutter49, I have a '41 with I believe the exact same bed on it, the low sides and all. The cab protector is awesome looking, do you believe that is original? I wanted to make one for mine other than what was on it and I like that one alot. Could you send me a couple detailed pics of that, like the mounting and bracing. Also, this whole posting has been quite informative for me as I have just begun to dig into restoring mine, thank you all!
