Doesn't have two speed rear axle. But it us a leaver on the gear stick which we think was to operate a 2 spread diff. So we think it has had either a diff change or gear box change.
Thanks everyone  |
Hello Jay,
I think you may find that the lever on the gear stick is a reverse gate that needs to be shifted to be able to select reverse.
The truck ranges from 1941 to 1947 and is known as the "Art Deco" Series Trucks. The earlier series 1936 to 1940 trucks had a different grille and headlight arrangement.
If you want to know more about the old "Stovebolt" Chevrolet trucks this link is a good one to visit
http://www.stovebolt.com. It is a pretty comprehensive site that ranges from a "Gallery" to years of "Technical Tips"
Could you please post up a photograph of where you found the Chassis Number? I have been looking for one on my 1940 truck and still not have been able to find it.
Kind Regards
Lionel
