Jon beat me to it. A great Ford truck nonetheless.

Bob, is that a 4 legged jack stand I see? Great looking truck. As stated before, '47 or earlier. Not my favorite body stile but a nice truck anyway.

What's odd is the turn signals below the headlights. There should be small lights in the outer fender area. I'll include a pic showing the front. And here's a link to a sweet 1946 at the western Nats. https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/7...nationals.html

1942-47 is the same truck. But from what I can see is that it does have a 46-47 hood on it. B/c the 42-45 hoods have a badge on them that said Ford to where the 46-47 has the Ford scripted in the side of it. Very nice truck. Are you going to buy it. I would love to have it. I'm looking for one if you decide to buy it and resale.
