The Stovebolt Site Forums The Shop Area General Truck Talk Vehicle identification

Hi everyone.I just got a 46 Chev half ton and it has the ident plate on the right front firewall. Are there any Canadian stovebolters out there who can tell me for sure what model it is or how I can find out. The numbers on John's list don't match so this must be a Canuck vehicle. Model # is 1314, engine CLL4189, trim 392, body 605, and ser # 6131402231, paint is 632. Started taking it apart today, what fun with the old square nuts and bolts. Frontclip and rear end has been changed. Really enjoy the web site.
