Default Fake

One LRDG replica was produced by sacrificing a rebuilt 1939 Chevy...plus a Canadian military '42 pattern thatg was ex-Showman's. However, and thius is wherte I start crying, it was the last surviving '39 normal-control Chevrolet built in the Southampton Plant. There is now just a '39 COE and a sedan, if it is still extant in Italy to where it was sold, surviving from local production.

Sorry..got to go to cry me eyes out!

Oh...didn't the '41 and '42-46 trucks have different sidelight locations? The '39 and '40 trucks had different lights as well as the different grille that looks at first sight to be the same.
