Hi oakandiron, I have a 1945 GMC "War Year Truck" that had no chrome.
All the trucks from 41-46 had black fenders & running boards regardless of cab color. On my GMC the grille was painted the cab color, which was Brewster Green.
My windshield frame and door glass frames were Black, and I believe the front bumper was Black also.
The grille on a Chevy, I believe was white.
Im not sure yet about the door handles, I have seen some NOS black door handles on E Bay before so i'm guessing they should be Black.
Mine were missing when I got the truck.
The interior sheet metal on a Chevy was that gold/beige color,
GMC was different.
Mine had the Brown wrinkle finish. It also had Rosewood Tan plastic window crank & door handles.
What color is your interior piece that the seat sits on? Those were the exterior cab color. Chances are yours might still be original color.
