I found a 41 with a one piece bed with roof. It has fenders but I don't think its a canopy express. Its solid steel top to bottom. Can anyone help me identify???

Maybe it's an after market or custom made "utility" bed, as used by phone company, electrician, contractor, etc. similar to this. ...maybe.
I agree; we need pictures! ;>)

I can't seem to link up with photo bucket. If you go to photo bucket look under 52 fanatic and the top left pic is it.

you mean this one - looks entirely home made Scott, definitely not factory

Not factory? Could be an aftermarket specialty company. If you have access to the truck see if you can find a name plate on the back portion. If someone could use this, this would be an interesting truck to save.

not GM factory or "stock bed" as phrased in the original question, nor even remotely like a canopy express

The strange thing is that it looks factory made because if you look inside you can see its almost a normal bed but flat on top instead of 45 degree and extended out. It has wood, stake pockets, and fenders but this was not pieced together. It came this way. No name but if I buy this truck it will be for sale. I will try and get more pics. Its just hard to get into this guys field. Took me awile to get permission the first time.

Looks like an early version of a crew cab / crummy logging guys used to use on west coast. Any sign of bench seating ?

No bench seating. It has a stock tailgate though. I am stumped. Another 69 year old mystery. Thanks guys.
