Sooner, try this it may help get you on the right track.

This link it for the truck but you may find them for panel as well. I just finished making my mounting blocks for my 52 Panel and they are wood. On mine there is also a rubber pad that goes on the bottom between the wood body mount block and the chassis.

I also would suggest going to the forum (bed forum) where Mar-K is listed as they sell bed/wood kits. You may find something of value there.
Good luck and perhaps someone working on your model will come along shortly.

I'd rather walk and carry a Chevy hub cap than ride in a Ferd.

Good Evening Sooner,
Jim Carter should have a set. I sent him an old set from my '46 Suburban for patterns. I believe they should fit from 37 or so up through early '47 Panels and Suburbans. Good Luck hope this helps. Richard

The link I left for him is actually the page showing some body mounts from JimCarter.
However, Sooner, if you can find the dimensions you can make your own and for the rubber part between body and frame I use some old firehose pieces. A volunteer fire dept gave me quite a piece of old hose and it really works nicely. Theres other things to use as well but after all the work I noticed the price of a NEW set was really not that bad....but maybe the price plus shipping to where your at would run the price up to where you would wantg to make them...
