I have a 1942 Chevy 1-1/2 ton dual wheel panel. Check it out on the Gallery 41-46, post your questions here or e-mail or call me at [email protected] 1-262-392-2989 I also need some parts for mine, some 1/2 ton and larger panel parts are the same.

The title lists a vin # 21dsa1264 and the only tag on the vehicle I can find is on the passenger side firewall and that says 21dsa1264 is the chassis #. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

My numbers are similar.
21 is Janesville WI
DS is 1 Ton or 3/4 Ton Special
A is January
1264 is the squence number
I have been told that 2629 were produced and this was probably done in the first few months of 1947.
This is my best guess and comes Brads 41-46 Website and help from some other guys on this site.
Looks like you, Marv and I should rendeyvous and stage a parade up here in the great white North!

One more thing, you can see if you have a 1Ton or a 3/4 by counting the leaves in the springs. If you have 8 then you probably have a 1 Ton. It has a 134.5" wheel base.

I have been looking for a long time as well. I have just decided to fix/rebuild what I have. There have been some panels on E-Bay for parts but they were usually a long way off.
I think the best bet is to find a fabricator or sheet metal guy that can build what you need.

ps
come on people we all have some sort of guide lines to go by and selling or soliciting for parts or vehicles in this section is a no,no. that's what the "SWAP MEET" is for.
thanks again

I was lucky and found some NOS fenders rather than straighten what I had. I held on to them because they were too good to get rid of. Dave Murray [email protected] | | | | | Joined: Apr 2005 Posts: 242 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Apr 2005 Posts: 242 | My front fenders are good would like to find better doors all the way around. Thanks for asking!!!!
