The 40 model grill has less bars in the grill because of a wider trim piece on top , The 39 is basically all bars right up to the top .

Ah yes, thanks. Now that I know what to look for I see the difference.

'39 on the left, '40 on the right:

This 39 Chev is owned by one of my best mates and he was to travel with us on the now postponed "Back to the Track" trip in a 1946 Chev truck.

The hearse behind is also his and is a Propert bodied 1938 Chev.

I think there aren’t trailers, just a staggered line of trucks
