That is quite a lucky find, parts in the picture look to be clean and ready to start working on. Next question how are you jig saw puzzles? Putting a vehicle that someone else disassembled will be an interesting challenge. Keep us posted on the progress.
Cheers Phil

Great find and great project!
I am surprised to see a yellow dash housing.....my C8 has a yellow dash as well. Am I missing something.....Just a coincidence? Or did Chevrolet use a run of yellow dash housings back in 1940? Alex

Dash photos...
Not sure where to check on the block for the serial #. Is there a frame # stamped somewhere as well? |

..... I hope it included the assembly manual.......hahaha !!!
If I can be of any assistance... mine is a C15a but I took mega pictures during the disassembly........ and Phil has quite the repertoire also.... I wonder what David Hayward can tell us about the manufacturing date by referencing the engine and body serial numbers....... Good luck and keep the pictures coming..... Bob C.

Interesting truck. My 1940 C-15 Has a serial number of 0842109189, about eight thousand higher than yours. The interesting thing is my engine number,2789696 is very close to your number of 2789612. I wish my truck was in as good a condition as your truck is.
