The Ford Barn

I want to sell this door and be accurate in my description, please help if you can positively ID the year of this door.
For intersted parties I will be posting it in Swap Meet for $150 and it includes the window channel, regulator, latch.
Still has visible business graphics.

looks like 38/39 1/2 ton pick up or panel--

It looks like a 39 heavy truck door that I have.

38 39 truck. Love the lower hinge repair. You could put it on a panel truck but the upper rear corner is different. Trucks are rounded and a panel comes to a 90 degree angle.

Would probably be best as wall art, unless you were desperate for a door!

It's usable for a barn find truck but would need some love for a restoration. Have fixed worse for 40 to 47 ford trucks. Those doors were only 2 years .

picture of a 38/39 door I took off a 41 pick up. look close you can see 2 or maybe 3 letter sets on door.

Teaching moment here: I know the belt moldings differ, but could you swap doors around and have everything from 1938-47 interchange?

roadster 62- yes apparently even the window, window riser and the door latch are the same. took this door off a 4 cylinder 41 1/2 ton pick up and put a correct one back on and used everything inside the 38/39 door in the 40-47 door

A second Yes.
I saw a 42 to 47 in a junkyard one day with a 38/39 door on one side.
