Default 39 model

Hi
The truck is a 1939 model, behind the brush guard you can see the short or narrow upper grill panel. The long bullet shaped headlight bodies are another 1939 parts. The 1940 model has the wider grill panel and short stubby headlights.

The front axle hubs don't look like Marmon Herrington hubs to me, but GM-H may have modified the M-H hubs to suit the GM pattern wheels.

I am sure there were a small number of these unusual Maple Leaf 4x4's assembled, probably less than fifty.
