The truck looks nice to begin with and appears to be a pretty solid piece for restoration.
The transmission looks more like a '39 to me, or it could be a '35-'36 case with '39-'48 gears, and '39 style shifter top/tower. If you check the serial number on the flat area above the clutch inspection plate, that would tell which year and month the case was used in production. There is also a casting part number on the back of the case that will tell which year(s) it was used in production.
