I'm making progress. Ecklers has a wiring harness that I ordered.

Re: Columbia Rear end? 1936
293131: I found this on ebay.
https://www.ebay.ca/itm/144988130311.
It's @ $1,500.00 USD and $500.00 freight.

That's you...

Re: 1941 PickUp Cab Heater
I have no holes in the firewall. Either the truck never had a heater, or, the firewall was replaced in a restoration process before I purchased it.
