    the dash (if it's the same as chevy) is a 40-early 47.
    39 chevys were flat.

    I may be wrong, but I bet it is a '41-'46. I know the firewalls on the '39-'40 Chevys have vertical ribs. The 41-46s have the Xs on the firewall. Other than that the cabs are damn near identical.

    I have 2 '40 cabs and 1 '41-'46 cab.

    Oh, and Tomslik is right about the dash. The instrument cluster was different on the 39s as compared to the 40-46s.
