I attached a picture of a VC-5, note how the fenders have a larger opening then the truck Norm put a picture up of. VCs got larger wheel wells then the 2wd 39-47 trucks.
Also the Dodge badges were not put on the hood until 1941 on the 2wds, and VCs never got Dodge badges on the hood.
The hood ornament is from a 1941-47 truck, so I figured the front sheetmetal and grill was as well. I noticed the lower headlights, maybe the front fenders are 39-40 2wd, with 1939 headlights?
The bed is missing the center stake pocket, and the hooks for the canvas top, so I figured those were 2wd bedsides. Obviously those are 2wd rear fenders.
Looks neat though! I bet it was the only truck like it at the rally.
