Cab size

Hi Guys,
I'm totally new to trucks. I'm on the hunt for a late 30's P/U to hotrod. I'm seeing lots of 3/4 ton trucks for sale but no 1/2 ton. Are the bodies, cab and fenders the same size or is the 3/4 ton larger? I don't really care about the frame or drive line.
Thanks

Some years the pickups larger than 1/2 ton use the bigger truck cutout in the front fenders. 40 and 41 use a completely different front end than the light pickups.
