Very yhelpful suggestion. Found 2 glasses with a Ford bug. The picture shows the driver's window glass and there is also a bug on the broken windshield but it is backwards as was commonly the case when mounting glasses during production.
Can you guess the year looking at the code on the bug? On the left is a C and on the right of "Ford" is a D5. My 33 has the month and year in those sites but in this case is some type of code that I don't know.
So now we know is a Ford and pretty much all of you believe is a truck panel from 1942-47. Will be searching for its frame/chassis that appears may be around also.
Yep, we are in western South Dakota and old iron seems very well preserved around here.
