Wild 1940 Dodge/Chevy Cummins powered Hotrod...is it a RATROD? Will it run?

Well, yall just what we needed... another project. But this one was a good deal I promise. Just like the last one was. I actually bought this truck from a really good friend of mine. He bought it from another fella, who bought it from the folks that were building it and from what I can tell it's been sitting outside since then. I had to go to Childersburg, Alabama to pick the truck and parts up. Gonna try and get it running and driving and figure out more about the truck.

The paperwork on the truck is from Indiana and calls it a 1940 Chevy truck. I believe the grill and fenders are a 1940 to maybe a 1947 Dodge truck. The chassis is a 1993 Dodge D350 5.9 liter 12 valve cummins. Its an automatic and its 2wd dually. Someone suicided the doors on the cab, its got a tilt steering column and a B&M ratchet shifter.
