i got one from a 51 if ya want it.

 

I have one for a 49 up. You can have it for the cost of shipping. Dean

 

Aha, seats werent in mine when i got, that explains it. And will be fitting a bench seat and gas tank at the rear of the frame. Still going to refit the tray tho. John

 

The rounded end would be on the drivers side from what I can see.

 

My '49 has the rounded one in it.

 

my 48 has one with tools and will check tomorrow for round or square, up to now its all pretty original, v8-4 speed-2 speed axle- pto ,tipper, with dump bed fitted, glove box tag and firewall tag match, just bought it in to uk a few weeks back, steve ,uk

 

I've had the fortune to find quite a few and I think on pretty good authority I can say they used whatever they could get - square one month, round the next. I've seen 48's with either style, 49's with either style, 50's with either style (talking all conventional trucks, no cabovers in the findings)

 

I've been rethinking my build and adding one of the rounded ones to the 49. Since I have a 48 Mercury radio, I might make the inside and outside...

 

I have a few of the squared tool trays and access to a rounded tray.

 

Does anyone know where you can find the rubber bumpers (2) hat plug into the bottom of the tool tray as you can see in Jeff's photo? I have tried the usual sources without success.

 

I pulled one of these out of a 49 F1, the bottom is rotted out of it but sides with the rounded ends are in very good shape and has the 2 rubber bumpers. I'll dig up some pics of it and post them shortly if I can find them.

 

Couldn't find the pics of the tool tray so took some new ones for you.

 

Gregg for what it's worth the tray pictured is the same as the tray in our 49 M68 .

 

looked my just imported 48 coe and its round at drivers side end and square at passenger, bolts along top of tank behind std seats,

 

I know I am a little late but I have one. But unlike the others pictured, mines still green
