I am in need of windshield frame and doors for 46 Chevy truck. Was told that a 1939-1946 was the same. Can anyone confirm? Thanks
windshield frame and doors are the same 39 to 46.Cab is slightly different.I have a 39 cab and dash on my 46
windshield and drivers doors are the same 39-46. with the p***enger door 39-40 have door lock in handle and 41-46 lock is under handle in sheetmetal.
Bare door gl*** seals in channel '39-'40. A steel frame surrounds gl*** '41 on. Backlight has a potmetal frame until sometime in '40-'41 when lockstrip rubber is used.
I found this out the hard way when I had my "46" - it was really an earlier year cab but i didn't know until I found out about the pot metal window frame. Took me quite awhile to find one too.
i had a few of those years trucks/parts. the forty i had did not have a hinge mounted mirror. it used a bracket that mounted through holes above the window. i always thought this was 1940 only. can someone confirm? like this truck.
41 was the last year for the window frame on the rear. 39-40 the side gl*** had no frame around them 41-46 had frames. 39-40 defroster vents are different than 41-46 vents. I have never seen a factory mounted mirror like the on above even on coes. I am thinking it is dealer/aftermarket. I have a lot of these trucks including COEs. If you need to know anything else I can usually either supply the answer or go look at the trucks in storage to find the answer.
