Lovely 1941 Ford Fire Engine that is on display at the Early Ford V8 Foundation Museum, Auburn, Indiana. Notice that there is no V8 pressing on the Hood on this 1941 Ford Truck. That is because a Six Cylinder Flathead was available for the first time in 1941. Also notice the wide Trim Strips on the Hood extending down into the Grille. Hopefully, the next time you spot a 1940 or 1941 Ford Truck or Pick-Up, you can tell if it is a 1940 model or a 1941 model. I hope that these pictures and explanation help.
