Build card info so far, more needed please..

Guys,

Here is what I have so far:

Serial No Date built Engine Body code
83900517 May 16 1946 T137-1848 627
83900585 May 24 1946 T137-1740 684
83902048 Oct-46
83902301 Nov 14 1946 T137-3683 2267
83912457 Feb 18 1949 T137-14153 13868
88750019 June 24,1946 T137-1142 179

One interesting thing is that the cabs and engines must have been shipped out to CA in early 1946 as the trucks built the month before the CA truck had cab and engine numbers 600-700 higher.

Does anyone know when Dodge started the 1947 model year?

More build card info would be a great help to my project, does anyone else have one?

Eric
