Hey Navy, welcome to CHR!!
I look at a bunch of '40pics https://www.google.com/search?q=1940...w=1517&bih=714



and a bunch of '47 pics 1947 ford pickup - Bing Images

and I really can't tell the difference except for the gas filler location.

I'm not sure if you're intending to go stock with the floor or not but after-market sheet metal companies like Direct Sheet Metal list the same floor boards for '40-'47 Vintage Ford Sheet Metal!

Looks like a great project!!

Hello to all; I owned a 41 pick-up way back in the last century. I was 16 and my best friend told me a guy we knew had a truck for sale and could get it cheap. We went and saw him and he said he wanted $100.00, so we loaded in my car to go see it. Welll it was really bad, but I got him down to $30.00, no motor 4 flat tires no interior ,front of trans hanging from a rope. But I fell in love with it. Enough of this, the 40-47 cabs are the same . Of course the front fenders and hood were changed, and some changes to the 239 flathead. many of the parts I got for mine came from a 46-47. Also some car parts will fit, such as grills. Ford also made a 1/4t truck that was a station wagon with a truck body , meet a guy who had one , he got it from original owner, nice ride. So as long as title nums match it doesn't matter. Have fun with it. I wish I had mine back, mhutch4848
