You are in the right place. Once you figure out what you have (taken from your post in Engine Shop, we will edit your title.
Besides the list, do you want to tell us a little more about the truck, and yourself. You don't have to. More than likely, you'll end up doing most of your posting in the Big Bolts forum. One stop shopping there.
Welcome Centre is a stopping spot and we try to direct you to where you'd get most help.
Welcome tho ....

Welcome to the ‘Bolt! Nice fleet! We would love it, if you could tell us a bit about your trucks, their history, your goals and what you have already accomplished on your restorations.
And of course we ‘Bolters love pictures, so please post some. Again, welcome to the ‘bolt!

Looks like the engine compartment on your 1941 is gonna need a bit of love.
Those horns (when they get working again) should just about wake everyone up in the entire state of CA. Might break a few "noise ordinances' though.
Thanks for the pic.
