I have a 1942 BK Pickup who's number on the firewall plate read 06BK01. I found a website when I was originally looking for the year and it told me that the 06 was the plant it was made, the bk, indicated a 42, and 01, was the month.

I just picked up a new 1 1/2 ton truck who's tag reads 5PW-J or possible 5BW-J. Now I can't find the website and I would like to know the history behind it. It's a 41-46 style. any help would be great! Thanks!
