Default 1945?

It seems to be a 1945 Model as I said before, civilian Ute, based on Canadian-sourced commercial chassis. I suggest that the body may have been assembled in April '45? The engine cylinder block casting number appears to be a unique Canadian number used from 1941-45 at least. The Head might be # 839401. The date code near the block casting number will tell us which day the block was cast, but I suspect that "104" might be part of it, e.g. I = September then "04" for the date then the year, say "4" although it could be Letter/10/4.
