What model trans came stock in a 1941 COE? Is it the same as a conventional truck? What years would it fit?

Chevrolet 4-speed (nick named the "crash box"). This is a non-synchronized trans used from 1941 to 1947.

This trans does not have the bottom right mounting bolt offset like ‘47 to present GM trans.’

I believe the transmission is made by GM and is called GKT-134. Regarding fitment it spans at least 1937-1947; I am not sure when it started production.

Typo on my part...this trans was used from 1931 to 1947. 1931 was the first year for a 4-speed in a Chevrolet truck...
