I came across a 1940 half ton for sale on FB. Reached out with a few questions. The vehicle serial number he gave seems off a bit but he verified as best he could.

21KC112651

21 = Janesville WI plant
KC = 1/2 ton commercial
1 = 1941 and this should be a zero I thought
1 = January which may make sense if the last of that year (1940) and body style (which changed for 1941) rolled out in January 1941
2651 = sequential build _ this being fairly low makes me think it may be POSSIBLE

I appreciate any thoughts on the matter.
