Something else I didn't know.
According to this brochure, the 40 COE still used the 39 nose

Actually the COE grill changed in '41. The grill bars were changed from stainless in '41 to cream painted steel in '42 thru '47. I always wanted to find a '41 grill for my '47. The '41 also had stainless door handles, a chrome bumper and chrome emblems on the cowl vent doors. The '42-'47 bumper was black, the door handles and emblems were painted cream like the grill bars.

Someone should put together a brief "year ID' thread with the differences.
Isn't '40 the only year the emblem is ahead of the vent doors?
I kinda prefer the non-stainless grilles- seems more in line with the nature of the trucks.
BTW- I put a waterfall grille on my '40 (it came with none); no stainless.
