I know mine is a mostly a '39 due to the dash, the smaller top bar in the grille, no parking lights on the front fenders and the VIN number. 37-39 are identical on the guages and 40-46 share a dash as well.

My question at this point is, "Are their any ways to tell a 39 3/4 ton frame from a 40 3/4 ton frame?"

Did the frame remain the same and the box just get a little wider in 40?

I've looked at the online resto pack and I'll need to measure the wheelbase tonight to see if the frame is at least the right length.


If it ain't broke, take it apart and figure out why!
