1940 Shop Manual: 

This is an ok manual. It is much better for the passenger cars than the truck. It does have some good information about transmissions and the drive shaft.

1940 Chevrolet Truck Data Book:

I don't have this rare book. I believe it has much better info and pictures of truck equipment. It was meant for the Chevrolet salesmen to help with selling the truck. Last one I saw for sale was $75.00

Owner's Manual 1940 Trucks:

My copy is a bit ratty, but still ahs good info you would expect like fluid amounts, spark plugs, maintenance intervals

Chevrolet Trucks, Operation and Care:

I got this from a guy in Australia. It covers the really big trucks from 1940.

Chevrolet Truck for 1940:

This is a very neat book. I t has a artist drawing and line drawing of every truck platform for 1940, including the bus, flatbeds, COE, rack trucks, etc.  I've included a few more pages from this one so you can see what I'm talking about.



Chevrolet 1940 Engineering Features:

Like the shop manual, it is really best for information on the car models

Some Chevrolet signs:

I don't own any of these signs. I just like this kind of stuff.
