Hi john:
The four holes around the cab rear window tell me immediately it is a military cab. No civilian cab had those 4 holes. To my best knowledge, the appeared only on cabs sold to the military, hence the PT-105 is a military truck (assuming the cab had not been swapped at any time). The holes are for mounting a mesh screen outside the cab that protects the cab rear window. You might see such a screen on factory photos of a 1941 Dodge WC half-ton closed cab military truck. Check your archives.
