That is strange. According to the GM Vehicle Info Kits, thru the AD years, 47-55.1 the only plants assembling trucks were:
1. - Flint, MI
2. - Tarrytown, NY
3. - St. Louis, MO
5. - Kansas City, MO
6. - Oakland, CA
8. - Atlanta, GA
9. - Norwood, OH
14. - Baltimore, MD
20. - Los Angeles, CA
21. - Janesville, WI

I even looked at 46 and 41 and still no plant Number 7. ohwell
GP is definitely the model code for a 1949 3100. I assume you're talking about the serial number plate on the door pillar. Is it possible it could be a partially stamped 9?
Do you know where the truck came from? Since you're in Maryland, it would make sense for it to be a Baltimore truck, unless it came from another part of the country.

Maybe someone else can shed some light on this mystery.

If you're smart enough to take it apart, you darn well better be smart enough to put it back together.
