Evening all, I just received a reply to my question sent earlier today asking the seller to double check the data plate for date of manufacture. Here's his reply:

Dear corporald,
Good afternoon Derek Thank you for your email. We did he best we could in an ice-cold dark barn. Think we remember reading 1939. It seems to us that the differences are academic due to the rarity of any variety of these early WWII trucks. Please feel fee to email us again if we can assist in your bidding. Cheers Walt
