Engine serial number is T3I93071, which doesn't match anything I've found online so far. Attached Images Ernie, 29 International, 32 Confederate, 58 Apache, 59 Viking

The engine serial number and the T indicate 1932 truck. The dash has 1933 instruments. The candy cane hook latches are correct for 1932. The 1933 truck has the same louvers but uses the rods, brackets and center handle the same as 1932 passenger cars. Looks to be an amalgamation of 1932 and 1933 truck parts but mostly 1932. How Sweet the roar of a Chevy four!
