Some here will spot this as a 39 tailgate with Chevrolet script. About the same width as your and 15-1/2 inches tall..... tailgate | | |

is so the could sell it to a non-GM truck guy
These were pretty neat but I don't think they sold many.
Maybe Oily can measure an Army truck one | | |

I wonder if it maybe could be for a '41 or so coupe express box? | | |
