I might be able to find some if the weather stays decent around here and it
warms up. I'm in Idaho, which may make it tough on shipping. I believe
that they might be the same as pickup so that isn't good as you have to
fight with the street rod guys. Dennis Carpenter has a repro truck parts
catalog for 32-45 trucks. One of my guys has a 1944 Ford Military (like we
gave the Russians) a guy gave him and I'm working on a Cushman Airborne,
so I ordered the Ford Catalog with the Cushman one from Carpenters. They
are on line. If we can figure out what interchanges we can go from there as
I have a feeling more than one year fits. Ford was famous for changing the
hood and front sheet metal. Finding good doors is a pain as they always
took at beating. How bad are yours? Trucks are fun as I'm a GI reenactor
and they are fun to shoot at!!! Lots of Dodge stuff around. I know where
there is a 1939 Dodge that was probably a CCC truck to start with. You can
see OD under the fading paint, has tow hooks and pintle hitch. Let me know
and I can do some checking for you. Thanks, Howard Wright at DVS ,
