Doug,
'39 -'47 Dodge 2WD is basically the same bed. The bedsides are slightly thicker on the military but not very detectable to the normal eye. Front panels are the same. Military tailgate has no Dodge script as the civy does. You'll have to make up a center pocket and put the extra hole in the top rail. Find tie down hooks and fill the holes for the fenders. All depends on how far you want to go.
I made mine using Mack Products stuff.(1-660-263-7444) They have the tailgate and front panel, really nice stuff. Bedsides you have to do a little work on unless you want to pay them to do it.
Feel free to Email me if you have more questions, Kevin
