The front hood (bonnet) and fenders appear to be CCKW. the cab appears to be a civilian cab, and perhaps not even Chevy or GMC. The ribs under the windows on the doors are not anything like a Chevy/GMC from the '41-'46 time frame. Perhaps an earlier civilian cab?? I don't recognize the instrument cluster in the dashboard either...

Looks like a Ford cab to me.

I think it is a Ford as pictured with the GM column and steering wheel and nose.

It is a GMC closed cab with civilian dash,because it has 12 vents in the engine side panel. :lol: Chevrolet has only 6 vent.
