It appears to have Ford lines, I'd say 1950, but the grill throws me.

Not too many pickups with a vertical grill and a split windshield. Possibly a post war Studebaker they made pickups at that time that had both.

There's probibly a name on the grill. did you look at it? I'd say late 40's to early 50's. I can't recognize the shape of the grill.

It's a mid 40's wrecker built on a Chevy truck.

Yep, now that I can see the whole grill, it's a 1946 Chevy.
