You sure that's a 39? Can't see real well but the headlights on a 39 (only) were up on the crown of the fender, not on the slope down to the grille. Maybe front fenders changed in the past or maybe I'm wrong altogether. What's the body number on the right door post?
I have a 39 all restored but no fenders. If you need pictures say so. Good

That's what I was told. I have added a few more pics for opinions.
Thanks

Your truck is either a 39 or 40. In 41 the headlights moved up on top of the fenders away from the grill.
If you can't find a goos steel fender check out this ebay auction.

That truck, or least the front grille assembly, is a model year 1939. Note the downward sweeping section in the front. It has 8 upper grille bars and the area between upper and lower grille sections that was originally accentuated with a curving stainless insert. This changed for model year 1940 wherein the stainless sweep was made horizontal and the upper grille bar count reduced to four. The down-sweep was only made one year, 1939. Another small change was the conversion to sealed beam headlights for model year 1940, making the '39 trucks a distinctive one-year model. This truck appears to have been converted to sealed beams by a previous owner due to the unfinished appearance. Headlight buckets are not supposed to be chromium plated, but painted fender color which was black. 1939 lenses might be hard to find, as will the missing ram horn.

The headlights for 1939 and 1940 were as they are shown in the truck in question. They moved to pockets on the crowns of the fenders for 1941 model year and remained there for the balance of the design life, just like you said.

BillP....that's GREAT info...thanks very much!!!!!!

I have a 42, the headlights are on the crown of the fenders. BTW, I'm looking for hubcap clips, does your '39 have them? use them? I have hubcaps, but the wheels on my truck have no clips for the hubcaps... it is also possible that I have the wrong wheels, dunno.

Anyway, have you clips?

Sorry, no clips. Mine is a ton and a halfer with 20 inch wheels. Are car clips the same or are they exclusive to truck? Try Roberts parts in Massachusetts?

I'm always interested in talking Dodge Trucks, 1918-1970s

I have a 1940 dodge....and also may have an extra set of rims that have the clips. Where are you located?
