I have a question about retrofitting a 1942 to 1946 rear window and gasket to replace the window, gasket and zinc molding on a 1941 Chevrolet AK Truck. We have a damaged zinc molding and want to retrofit the later style to this earlier truck. Has anyone had experience with this kind of retrofit. We believe the opening in the sheet metal is the same for all 1941 to 1946 Chevrolet trucks, but have no way of knowing if that is really the case.

Any input from people who know these trucks well will be appreciated. Thanks in advance....Charles Evans

Cab sheet metal is not the same, however you may be able to make it work. '41 trucks have lots of parts different than 42-46. best of luck
