Early 1940's Dodge?

Whatever it is, it's about a 1937-1941. Doesn't seem to be Hudson or Packard factory-built. Home-built?

1941-47 Art Deco platform truck.
There was apparently no ½-ton Light Delivery platform. This one is then made on the 125¼"/3.18 m wheelbase of the Three-Quarter Ton model or on the 134½"/3.42 m wheelbase of the One Ton and Heavy-Duty models (but the 1½-ton Heavy-Duty trucks have dual rear wheels).

6-bolt wheel, meaning a ¾-ton only.

As usual with Art Deco trucks:
Art Deco is not an official name, only the one given by fans and enthusiasts;
• this truck has 2 internal codes. As 1941 ¾-ton model, it has the AL code. Plus, as ¾-ton platform, the 3608 one. Which one should we give it? Both?
