The 40 and 41 trucks had the narrower grille with the headlights mounted beside the radiator. The 42 and newer trucks had the headlights mounted on top of the fenders.
Yes, I see, about the wheels openings, there is no question.

I am not sure about Canadian built, but the US commercial range had the new waterfall grill design, with new headlights position, since 1941. As for the truck with the popped headlights in the previous post, I have no information at all.
